How would I use this or similar technology for a phone? #99

I don't remember posting anything on GitHub before as the entire site still confuses me a little, so apologies if this is in the wrong place but nonetheless, here we go. I see you have software for windows, mac, and Linux. That's amazing. However, I was wondering how someone who doesn't have a computer can turn their phone into a proxy server to connect to a server. There are (not a ton, but a some) who use discord (the place I'm advertising my Java/bedrock cross-platform server) that has a phone, yet not a computer. I'm almost positive that theoretically if windows can be turned into a proxy server, they should be able to as well. I know that some software to do such things exists, however, I don't believe it'll make the LAN game come up. If you could please offer me some help as to how Andriod/iPhone users could do this, it'd be much appreciated.

there is another thread on the topic of using android as a proxy server. he has compiled arm versions of this program specifically for that use case.

idk about using iphone as any code run on it would need to be run from an app in the app store. maybe a future version of this code could be run as an app that basically uses "web app" like features. id be curious if someone could make a webapp specifically for use with all devices. that would be cool.
