## What it is
A self-hosted web platform for managing pools of Android and iOS smartphones, providing a device list, remote control of real devices, and user/admin features. It is a Python (Tornado + RethinkDB) reimplementation of atx-server, with device access provided by separate provider agents.

## Use cases
- manage a shared pool of android test devices
- remotely control a real phone from a browser
- set up a self-hosted mobile device farm
- let a team reserve and occupy smartphones for testing
- run appium/uiautomator tests against shared devices
- track device ownership and asset numbers in a lab

## When to choose
- you need a self-hosted device farm for Android and iOS phones
- you want browser-based remote control of real devices
- you are already using the openatx ecosystem (atx-agent, minicap, uiautomator)

## When to avoid
- starting a new deployment - the project is explicitly no longer developed and recommends choosing another platform
- you need active maintenance, support, or new features
- you need a commercial-grade device cloud with SLAs
