## What it is
A Bash setup script that installs Arch Linux into a Termux PRoot (optionally QEMU) environment on Android, Chromebook, Fire OS and Windows devices. It provides a full Linux command prompt on smartphones, tablets, wearables and similar devices.

## Use cases
- install arch linux on android phone
- run a linux terminal in termux
- set up arch linux proot container on a tablet
- use x86 packages on an arm android device via qemu
- get a linux command line on a chromebook without root

## When to choose
- you want Arch Linux userland inside Termux on an Android or similar device
- you need emulated architectures like x86 or x86-64 on ARM phones
- you want a simple one-command installer script

## When to avoid
- you need a real dual-boot or native Linux install rather than a PRoot container
- you use a non-Arch distribution or a non-Termux environment
- you need guaranteed long-term support; the project appears low-activity with a nonstandard license
