Scripting Layer for Android (SL4A) is a project that lets you run scripting languages such as Python, Perl, Lua, and JavaScript on Android devices. Scripts can call the Android API via RPC to do things like send text messages, read sensors, and show notifications. It is a project from the Google Code era, used to automate devices or build simple tools without writing a full app in Java.
Scripting Layer for Android brings scripting languages to Android.
