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.

It was a big deal when they announced it several weeks ago. It just flew under the radar for some reason. This is just putting a name to it.
