| Part | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| system | It's a system partition image (not boot, vendor, or userdata). |
| roar | Likely a custom ROM codename (possibly a personal or small-team build, maybe based on LineageOS / AOSP). |
| arm64 | Architecture: 64-bit ARM (for modern Android devices). |
| ab | Supports A/B (seamless) updates – works on devices with two system slots. |
| vndklite | Vendor NDK (VNDK) with “lite” variant – allows overriding vendor libraries; often used with GSI (Generic System Image) to run on devices with strict vendor partitions. |
| gapps | Google Apps pre-included (Play Store, Services, etc.) – no need to flash separately. |
| img.xz | Compressed disk image (extract with unxz or similar). |
