WHAT IS VANIR ROM

Welcome to VanirAOSP.

Our mission is to deliver a clean optimized version of Android with subtly improved versions of the features you love to as many devices as possible. we've tried to incorporate and improve our features in a way that makes them more cohesive to improve the overall user experience while correcting any performance regressions and improving functionality..

What to expect:

- This is not a McCopy ROM. What goes into our build is well thought-out and not a bunch of stuff duck taped together because we could. 

- maximum optimization. We do our research. We test hard. We build -fstrict -O3 globally and include a massive array of code optimizations and memory leak fixes that we write ourselves and eventually submit to AOSP or Linaro. 

- originality in our source. We generate a lot of new commits being features or general code improvements. We are open source to share and improve the community but we also try to make sure we offer a unique experience.

- aesthetics.. hopefully in your opinion :P
