Editions

AndroidWrt Lite

Build from source

An app (APK) for stock Android with root. It installs AndroidWrt, starts it after every boot and updates itself.

Android: 8.0 or later, arm64-v8a
Root: KernelSU or Magisk
File: androidwrt-lite.apk

Build instructions

AndroidWrt (AOSP)

Planned

AndroidWrt built into a custom ROM, with the router as a system service, no root needed and a package system. It will live in a separate repository.

Build from source

The build runs on macOS or Linux and cross-compiles for the device. You need:

Go 1.27 or later
Node.js 24 or later, with npm
The Android SDK: build-tools 35.0.0, platforms;android-30, platform-tools (adb)
A JDK

Builds without a release key are signed with a local debug key: fine for your own device, never for publishing. See Building from source.

Build

$ git clone https://github.com/AndroidWrt/core.git
$ cd core
$ ./cores/fetch-cores.sh   # Xray, SmartDNS and geo data (first time only)
$ ./build.sh               # web panel + rebornd, into dist/rebornd
$ ./android/build.sh       # the Lite app, into dist/androidwrt-lite.apk

Install over USB debugging

$ ./deploy/deploy.sh --apk   # installs the app and starts AndroidWrt

Or copy the APK to the device, install it, open AndroidWrt Lite, allow root when asked and tap “Start AndroidWrt”.
