Description-en: Android in a box
Anbox is a container-based approach to boot a full Android system on a
regular GNU/Linux system.
.
In other words: Anbox will let you run Android on your Linux system
without the slowness of virtualization.
.
Anbox uses Linux namespaces (user, pid, uts, net, mount, ipc) to run a
full Android system in a container and provide Android applications on any
GNU/Linux-based platform.
.
The Android inside the container has no direct access to any hardware. All
hardware access is going through the anbox daemon on the host. It reuses
what Android implemented within the QEMU-based emulator for OpenGL ES
accelerated rendering. The Android system inside the container uses
different pipes to communicate with the host system and sends all hardware
access commands through these.
.
This package needs Android kernel modules and rootfs image, see
/usr/share/doc/anbox/README.Debian for information.
