AndroidControlKit .NET

Professional Android SDK + Scrcpy Automation Toolkit for .NET Developers

A unified open-source library for Android SDK discovery, ADB/Fastboot execution, Scrcpy mirroring, emulator tooling, and desktop-grade Android device automation.

---

Why AndroidControlKit?

Building Android desktop utilities in .NET often means manually handling:

• Android SDK path detection
• adb process wrappers
• fastboot command execution
• emulator binary resolution
• Scrcpy process launch scripts
• device mirroring arguments
• environment validation logic
• repeated shell boilerplate

That usually leads to fragmented codebases and fragile utility scripts.

AndroidControlKit .NET solves this by providing a single, clean, developer-friendly API layer that combines:

✔ Android SDK Management ✔ ADB/Fastboot Integration ✔ Scrcpy Device Mirroring ✔ Emulator Tool Resolution ✔ Android Device Automation

inside one reusable .NET toolkit.

Core Features

Android SDK Discovery Engine

Automatically locate and validate Android SDK installations from:

• ANDROID_HOME
• ANDROID_SDK_ROOT
• Android Studio standard directories
• Windows Local AppData paths
• custom developer-defined locations

ADB + Fastboot Tooling

Programmatic access to:

• adb executable
• fastboot executable
• shell command helpers
• device listing
• package install/uninstall
• reboot/recovery helpers
• command output capture

Scrcpy Mirroring Engine

Integrated desktop Android screen control with:

• automatic scrcpy binary discovery
• process launch wrappers
• serial-targeted execution
• USB or TCP/IP sessions
• custom resolution / bitrate / fullscreen flags
• hidden/background runtime support
• multi-device launch compatibility

Emulator Resolver

Quick access to installed:

• emulator binary
• AVD directories
• SDK tools
• runtime launch parameters

Automation Friendly Architecture

Designed for:

• WinForms applications
• WPF dashboards
• background Windows services
• enterprise device management tools
• QA device farms
• internal support utilities

---

Installation

dotnet add package AndroidControlKit

or

Install-Package AndroidControlKit

---

Quick Start Example

using AndroidControlKit;

var android = new AndroidManager();

Console.WriteLine($"SDK Root: {android.GetSdkRoot()}");
Console.WriteLine($"ADB Path: {android.GetAdbPath()}");
Console.WriteLine($"Fastboot Path: {android.GetFastbootPath()}");
Console.WriteLine($"Scrcpy Path: {android.GetScrcpyPath()}");

var devices = android.GetConnectedDevices();

foreach (var device in devices)
{
    Console.WriteLine(device.Serial);
}

android.StartScrcpy("DEVICE_SERIAL");

---

Real World Use Cases

AndroidControlKit was built for developers creating:

• Android Device Inventory Systems
• Internal MDM/Desktop Control Utilities
• QA Automated Device Labs
• Device Mirroring Dashboards
• Android Deployment/Flashing Tools
• Remote Support Applications
• Enterprise Mobile Monitoring Solutions
• Multi-device Scrcpy Launchers

---

Developer API Highlights

SDK Detection

string sdkRoot = android.GetSdkRoot();
bool valid = android.ValidateSdk();

ADB Command Execution

var result = android.Adb("devices");
Console.WriteLine(result.Output);

Device Enumeration

var devices = android.GetConnectedDevices();

Launch Scrcpy

android.StartScrcpy("DEVICE_SERIAL", new ScrcpyOptions
{
    MaxSize = 1024,
    BitRate = "8M",
    Fullscreen = false,
    TcpIp = false
});

---

Designed For Scalability

Unlike basic adb wrappers, AndroidControlKit is structured as a modular Android desktop integration framework.

This means future support can extend into:

• APK deployment managers
• screen recording automation
• file transfer wrappers
• wireless debugging helpers
• device performance monitoring
• batch command orchestration
• Android farm administration

without changing the project foundation.

---

Platform Support

Currently Supported:

• Windows 10
• Windows 11
• .NET Framework
• .NET 6+
• .NET 7+
• .NET 8+

Roadmap:

• Linux runtime support
• macOS runtime support
• bundled Scrcpy dependency manager
• NuGet plugin modules
