Support Armbian

Armbian is built entirely by volunteers. Your contribution directly funds kernel development, hardware testing, build infrastructure, and community support across hundreds of ARM boards.

Where your money goes

Kernel Engineering

Every board needs patched kernels, Device Tree fixes, and driver backports. This is the most time-intensive work we do.

Build Infrastructure

Automated builds, CI pipelines, and download mirrors run 24/7. Servers and bandwidth cost real money.

Community Support

Forums, documentation, and moderation are volunteer-driven. Resources help us respond faster and write better guides.

New Board Support

Bringing up new hardware takes weeks of reverse engineering, driver work, and testing by skilled developers.
