asset-forge
A collection of pre-built assets for ARM64 (aarch64) Linux systems — static/portable binaries, proot rootfs images, toolchains, APK builds, and other packaged files. Deploy essential tools and environments on ARM64 devices — such as Raspberry Pi, ARM servers, Android/Termux setups, and embedded systems — without needing an internet connection or package manager.

🎯 Purpose
- Deploy tools and rootfs environments in air-gapped or offline settings
- Bootstrap minimal Linux systems and proot environments quickly
- Provide ready-to-run binaries, toolchains, and APKs for ARM64 without compilation
- Central store for assets used across the Forge Suite
📋 Requirements
- Architecture:
aarch64 / arm64
- OS: Linux (glibc-based distribution) for binaries; Android/Termux for APKs
- No package manager or root access required in most cases
