- [Frequently asked questions](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/faq.md): Root, Android versions, how Lindroids differs from Termux:X11, security, the GPU, and more.
- [Install](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/INSTALL.md): Install Lindroids in Termux, a proot distro or on a Linux desktop, and keep it up to date.
- [A program's own app](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/APPS.md): `lindroids export` builds a program its own Android app on the phone, in Rust, in milliseconds.
- [Installing apps with no taps](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/ADB.md): Pair Termux once with Android's Wireless debugging, and `lindroids export` installs a program's app by itself.
- [Architecture](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/ARCHITECTURE.md): The parts of Lindroids, why the server is a plain Linux program, and why the display is the browser.
- [Windows, the relay and runs](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/DISPLAY.md): How windows reach Android, how the link is secured, and everything tried along the way.
- [Packaging and releases](https://dixon-solutions.mintlify.app/docs/PACKAGING.md): How every package and repository is built, signed and published, and what a release contains.
