README excerpt
# OpenClaw on Android [한국어](README.ko.md) | [中文](README.zh.md) <img src="docs/images/openclaw_android.jpg" alt="OpenClaw on Android">      Because Android deserves a shell. ## No Linux install required The standard approach to running OpenClaw on Android requires installing proot-distro with Linux, adding 700MB-1GB of overhead. OpenClaw on Android eliminates this by installing just the glibc dynamic linker (ld.so), letting you run OpenClaw without a full Linux distribution. **Standard approach**: Install a full Linux distribution in Termux via proot-distro. ``` ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Linux Kernel │ │ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ Android · Bionic libc · Termux │ │ │ │ ┌───────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ proot-distro · Debian/Ubuntu │ │ │ │ │ │ ┌───────────────────────────────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ GNU glibc │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ Node.js → OpenClaw │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ │ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────┘ │ └───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘ ``` **This project**: No proot-distro — just the glibc dynamic linker. ``` ┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Linux Kernel
