Have you updated your Termux:API to the most reent debug build (not releaes build)? Debug builds are avivalable on the Github actions https://github.com/termux/termux-api/actions,
I share the same view with you, and there is a big gap for making our own Termux apps. Indeed, I made a PR here https://github.com/termux/termux-api/pull/497 long ago to provide such multiple files feature, but devs do not seem interested in merging any time soon. Perhaps you can voice your view there.
