Main features of this library:

- Full Rust, don't use `adb *` shell commands to interact with devices

- Supports

  - Using ADB server as a proxy (standard behavior when using `adb` CLI)

  - Connecting directly to end devices (without using adb-server)

    - Over **USB**

    - Over **TCP/IP**

- Implements hidden `adb` features, like `framebuffer`

- Highly configurable

- Provides wrappers to use directly from Python code

- Easy to use !

## adb_client

Rust library implementing both ADB protocols (server and end-devices) and providing a high-level abstraction over the many supported commands.

Improved documentation available [here](./adb_client/README.md).

## examples

Some examples showing of to use this library are available in the `examples` directory:

- `examples/mdns`: mDNS device discovery

## adb_cli

Rust binary providing an improved version of Google's official `adb` CLI, by using `adb_client` library.

Provides a "real-world" usage example of this library.

Improved documentation available [here](./adb_cli/README.md).

## pyadb_client

Python wrapper using `adb_client` library to export classes usable directly from a Python environment.

Improved documentation available [here](./pyadb_client/README.md)
