_**Ackpine** - **A**ndroid **C**oroutines-friendly **K**otlin-first **P**ackage **In**staller **e**xtensions_

See the [project website](https://ackpine.solrudev.ru) for documentation and API reference.

A library providing consistent APIs for installing and uninstalling apps on an Android device.

Key features of Ackpine:

- **Ease of use**: Ackpine reduces complexity of dealing with system `PackageInstaller` APIs.

- **Unifying of different system APIs**: Ackpine provides an ability to choose system package installer API which will be used to install a package.

- **Built-in split APKs support**: Ackpine provides simple lazy sequences-based APIs for reading, parsing and filtering split APKs.

- **Persistent**: Ackpine persists every session so it can properly handle process death.

- **Deferred**: Ackpine allows to defer user's intervention via customizable high-priority notification.

- **Progress and state updates**: it's easy to observe every session's state and progress updates.

- **100% Java and Kotlin-friendly**: while maintaining full Java compatibility, Ackpine was developed as a Kotlin-first library.

- **Compatibility**: Ackpine supports Android versions starting from API level 16.
