## What it is
A set of shell scripts and build tooling that produces Armbian (Debian/Ubuntu-based) images for Amlogic, Rockchip, and Allwinner ARM devices, including TV boxes not officially supported by Armbian. It supports writing images to eMMC, kernel updates, and adds convenience management commands to turn TV boxes into Linux servers.

## Use cases
- install armbian on an amlogic tv box
- replace android tv with linux on s905x3 box
- build armbian image for rockchip rk3588
- flash linux to emmc on khadas vim3
- turn a tv box into a home server
- update kernel on armbian tv box

## When to choose
- you own an Amlogic/Rockchip/Allwinner TV box or SBC unsupported by official Armbian
- you want to repurpose an Android TV box as a Debian/Ubuntu server
- you need eMMC installation and kernel management on these devices

## When to avoid
- your device is officially supported by upstream Armbian
- you need a general-purpose Linux distribution for x86 hardware
- you want a GUI/desktop-oriented ARM distribution
