| # Android Virtualization Framework (AVF) |
| |
| Android Virtualization Framework (AVF) provides secure and private execution environments for |
| executing code. AVF is ideal for security-oriented use cases that require stronger isolation |
| assurances over those offered by Android’s app sandbox. |
| |
| Visit [our public doc site](https://source.android.com/docs/core/virtualization) to learn more about |
| what AVF is, what it is for, and how it is structured. This repository contains source code for |
| userspace components of AVF. |
| |
| If you want a quick start, see the [getting started guideline](docs/getting_started.md) |
| and follow the steps there. |
