## What it is
A Magisk module providing a static BusyBox binary for Android, built with the NDK for all Android architectures (ARM/64, x86/_64, MIPS/64). It detects the device architecture, installs the binary, and manages symlinks with support for SuperSU/Magisk systemless installs.

## Use cases
- install busybox on a rooted android device
- get a static busybox binary for android ndk
- magisk module for busybox applets
- replace busybox in a magisk systemless setup
- run unix utilities on android via shell

## When to choose
- you have a rooted Android device with Magisk or SuperSU and need BusyBox applets
- you need a statically linked BusyBox covering all Android architectures
- you want automatic architecture detection and symlink management

## When to avoid
- your device is not rooted or you do not use Magisk/SuperSU
- you need BusyBox on a non-Android platform
- you require a license-clarified or officially supported distribution
