Shashlik is an open source project that takes a slightly different approach. Instead of turning Android into a desktop-style operating system, Shashlik aims to let you run Android apps as if they were native Linux apps.
In other words, you’d be able to run apps like Angry Birds and even Microsoft Office (mobile) alongside native Linux apps like LibreOffice, GIMP, and VLC in Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, or other GNU/Linux operating systems.

Shashlik looks good for running Android Apps within Linux . Being able to run Android Apps within Linux can give people more choices in software, and games to run in Linux because there are tons of free and paid apps available for Android, and a lot of new apps and games for Android are released on a weekly basis.
I wonder can Shashlik access files stored outside of the Android Emulator like the Downloads Folder within Linux Mint or Ubuntu.
