## What it is
PermissionGen is a small Java library that simplifies runtime permission requests on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) using a fluent API and annotations. It handles requesting permissions and dispatching success/failure callbacks via @PermissionSuccess and @PermissionFail annotations.

## Use cases
- request runtime permissions on Android 6.0
- simplify Android M permission handling
- handle permission grant and denial callbacks with annotations
- request multiple permissions like contacts and SMS in one call
- avoid writing boilerplate permission request code in activities and fragments

## When to choose
- you maintain a legacy Android app targeting Marshmallow-era APIs and want minimal permission boilerplate

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new Android project - modern AndroidX Activity APIs or newer permission libraries are actively maintained
- you need support for the latest Android permission features or Kotlin-first APIs

## Facets
