Lepton appears to be the new official name for Valve's version of Waydroid (Android in a Linux container).

We still don't have a whole lot of details about how this is all going to work, outside of Lepton enabling Android APKs for developers on the upcoming Steam Frame VR kit, but it's now that little bit more official with a proper name and even a logo.

At this point, Valve is just trying to bridge the tech gap that's getting ever-wider between platforms thanks for proprietary gate-keeping. Linux/Valve is gonna be the duo that sets us all free! Linux will give us the framework and Valve will give us the ease!
