## What it is
A set of shell scripts to cross-compile the Boost C++ Libraries for the Android platform using the Android NDK. It supports many Boost versions and multiple architectures including ARM, x86, and MIPS.

## Use cases
- build boost for android
- compile c++ boost libraries with android ndk
- use boost in android native app
- cross-compile c++ libraries for arm android
- link boost to an android gradle project

## When to choose
- you need Boost C++ libraries in an Android native (NDK) project
- you want prebuilt or scriptable Boost builds for multiple Android architectures

## When to avoid
- you only need Boost on desktop or server platforms
- you use a very old NDK/Boost combination not covered by the support matrix
- you prefer a package manager like vcpkg or Conan for dependency management

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: build-tool, developer-tools
- domain: mobile-development, cross-platform, developer-tools
- platform: cpp, cli
- tags: boost, c-plus-plus, android-ndk, cross-compilation, native-libraries, android
