You're doing the typical mistake of newbies, or wannabe provrammers. Starting with the cosmetic and trivial things.

First, you need to solve the real problems of writing a GUI:
* spawning sub-processes and talking to them via standard IO
* asynchronous IO to be able to timeout and kill hanging ...

You need a 64-bit ARM device to run it (ARMv8-a or above).

I just played a game against it, using Chess for Android. And it worked. Needless to say that I lost the game...
