Prebuilt small tools for ARMv7 (not ARMv7hf) devices, e.g. older ASUS routers.
This repository contains precompiled binaries of selected open-source tools
for ARMv7 devices that are often not provided upstream, or are only released for
ARMv7 hard-float (armv7hf) targets.
Some binaries are compiled from source; others are taken from official releases
and stripped for smaller size.
Note: All tools are licensed under their respective upstream licenses. This repository only redistributes compiled binaries for convenience.
Please check each project's LICENSE file for details.

- Architecture: ARMv7 (soft-float ABI,
armv7), unless otherwise stated. - Toolchain: Prebuilt using cross-compilation toolchains (musl / static linking where possible).
- Stripped: Some binaries have been stripped (
strip) to reduce file size. - Static Builds: Certain tools are statically linked for portability.
- richfelker/musl-cross-make — Simple makefile-based build for musl cross compiler.
- therealsaumil/static-arm-bins — A large collection of statically compiled ARM tools.
