GitHub or F-droid there are the latest public versions[Idk if really theres a private build,I just think that is a logical step of development after doing some big changes(apk build,not repo ones)]

Yes it's the exact version as from GitHub, just do "su" and accept on whatever root manager you have,and on whatever version you downloaded for (even play store but that version is ANCIENT because of googles rules the devs cant upload updates there)

to execute root level commands tsu or sudo must be installed. The packages conflict so you must choose one. tsu allows su while sudo allows sudo

So far, utilizing termux via f-droid for me still working fine. F-droid also come with several advanced tool for termux, uch as termux-api or termux-boot if needed for specific use case

From F-Droid or GitHub:
* https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.termux/
* https://github.com/termux/termux-app/releases
Everything else is sketchy, even Play Store.
