## What it is
A Java library for Android providing handy networking utilities such as port scanning, subnet device discovery, ping, and Wake-on-LAN. It fills the gap of missing good network APIs in Android/Java development.

## Use cases
- scan ports on a device from an android app
- discover devices on the local network
- ping a host from android
- send wake-on-lan magic packets
- find devices on subnet from mobile app

## When to choose
- you need simple network utilities (ping, port scan, WOL) inside an Android app
- you want a pure Java solution without shelling out to system binaries
- you need subnet device discovery on mobile

## When to avoid
- you need advanced networking features like VPN or packet capture
- you want a library published on Maven Central with strict dependency management
- your project is not Android/Java based

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: networking, developer-tools, security
- domain: networking, android-tools, developer-tools, security
- platform: jvm
- tags: ping, port-scanning, wake-on-lan, subnet-scanning, network-discovery, android, mobile
