We've been informed by UBports' Marius Gripsgård about the public availability of a new project called Anbox, which promises to let users run Android applications on top of their existing GNU/Linux distribution.
While currently supported only on Ubuntu, Anbox is described by its creator as a container-based approach to boot a complete and fully working Android operating system on a regular GNU/Linux distro. The project makes use of the LXC (Linux Containers) technologies to allow users to run any Android application.
Anbox also ensure integration of all Android apps into the existing desktop environment of your GNU/Linux distribution, making them look and feel like any other native Linux app. Additionally, Linux namespaces are used to isolate the Android operating system from the host.
