Limitations of the new Arduino Applab

it is possible to use one of the following methods:

1. ADB https://docs.arduino.cc/tutorials/uno-q/adb/
2. SSH https://docs.arduino.cc/tutorials/uno-q/ssh/
3. samba 5 Tips for Managing Your Arduino Uno Q
4. If one uses the Uno Q in stand alone mode then the directory and html file could be created directly on the Uno Q itself.

These methods can be used to add any arbitrary files to an App. It is true that the user being supported happened to be asking for assistance adding files to be used with a web UI, but the information I shared is simply about accessing the filesystem of the UNO Q's Linux machine.

I think it would be interesting if AppLab could allow access to the Arduino OS interface of the UNO Q.

I don't understand what you mean by this. Please provide a detailed description so that I can understand.

Please explain what you mean by "Arduino OS". I'm not aware of the existence of any such thing. Is it possible you have used an incorrect term?

I understand what you mean; however, for me it’s not possible to use the WebUI block because I cannot use CSS, Java, or HTML5, whereas the WebUI block relies on these elements.
As for “Arduino OS,” the Arduino Uno Q is an SBC — in other words, a computer — and the operating system of the Arduino Uno Q is Arduino OS, based on the Debian Linux distribution.

(If you want to use this mode, you need to connect a dongle that includes an HDMI port, at least two USB ports, and a USB‑C port. Then connect a power supply via USB‑C, a mouse, a keyboard, and a screen, and the system will boot. However, it is not recommended to use an Apple dongle, as it works poorly with the Uno Q.)
