Introduction to AuroraCore
Welcome to AuroraCore (Advanced Multi-Modal Framework 3 Core), a high-performance, production-ready logging and file monitoring framework designed specifically for Android environments.
🎯 What is AuroraCore?
AuroraCore is a comprehensive C++ framework that provides two essential components for Android applications:
- High-Performance Logger - A robust logging system with daemon mode support
- Real-Time FileWatcher - An efficient file system monitoring solution
Built with performance and reliability in mind, AuroraCore is designed to handle the demanding requirements of modern Android applications while maintaining minimal resource overhead.
🌟 Key Features
