Anbox is a container-based approach to boot a full Android system on a regular GNU/Linux system like Ubuntu. In other words: Anbox will let you run Android on your Linux system without the slowness of virtualization.

To launch an Android application from command line:

anbox launch --package=org.anbox.appmgr --component=org.anbox.appmgr.AppViewActivity
