What is Code Aurora Forums ?

Code Aurora Forum (CAF) is a consortium of companies with projects serving the mobile wireless industry. Software projects it concerns itself with are e.g. Android for MSM, Femto Linux Project, LLVM, MSM WLAN and Linux-MSM. Code Aurora is basically AOSP plus all Qualcomm specific enhancements and optimization.
​

What is AOSP-CAF ?

AOSP-CAF is meant to join AOSP and CAF projects into a widely usable repository,

stored on https://github.com/AOSP-CAF/. It also benefits from a few LineageOS updates.

Finally, AOSP-CAF Nougat also includes OMS theming implementations.
