## What it is
Tango (ya-webadb) is a TypeScript re-implementation of the ADB (Android Debug Bridge) client that runs in Chromium-based browsers via WebUSB, as well as Node.js and Electron. It includes a web app for controlling Android devices and libraries for programmatic ADB usage without the Google ADB executable.

## Use cases
- control an android phone from the browser
- run adb shell commands without installing adb
- push and pull files to android over usb from a web app
- mirror and control android screen with scrcpy in browser
- programmatically automate android devices from node.js
- build a web-based android device manager

## When to choose
- you want ADB functionality in a browser without native binaries
- you need programmatic ADB access from TypeScript/JavaScript
- you want to avoid installing the Google ADB executable
- you target Chromium-based browsers, Node.js, or Electron

## When to avoid
- you need non-Chromium browser support (WebUSB limitations)
- you need wireless ADB over TCP in a browser without a bridge program
- you need a full native ADB toolchain for CI pipelines
