Alpine Linux Runtime is the base local Linux userspace used by many VauCode development tools.
Install the base runtime before Node.js, Python, Rust, Git, Android JDK or Wireless ADB when VauCode shows those tools as waiting for Linux.
Toolchain Setup shows whether the runtime is ready and lets you expand installation logs after setup.
