Description-en: tool for reverse engineering Android apk files
A tool for reverse engineering 3rd party, closed, binary Android apps. It can
decode resources to nearly original form and rebuild them after making some
modifications; it makes possible to debug smali code step by step. Also it
makes working with an app easier because of project-like file structure and
automation of some repetitive tasks like building apk.
