What is Magisk
Rooting an Android Device opens the gate to endless Mods and Customization options available for Android. In fact, one of the biggest advantages of Android over iOS is its customizability.
Best Rooting method for Android
Magisk is a rooting method to gain Root access on Android devices. But unlike previous methods, Magisk does it without touching the System Partition which makes it the best rooting method.
What is a System Partition and why should it not be touched? Well, An Android device contains partitions and one of them is System partition. Previously, tools like SuperSU, modified the System partition to gain root access which in turn triggered Google’s safety net. Not to mention that the safety net can find out if the System partition is modified which restrict the banking apps and other apps like Netflix to work on a rooted device
System-less Root
John Wu, a skilled developer, developed Magisk. Magisk modifies the System partition without making modification in the System partition. All the modification stays in Boot partition, this is called System-less root. Hence Magisk successfully tricks the Safety net and you can still use Apps which doesn’t work on Rooted Android device.
Customize the Android with Modules
However, Magisk exceeds more than a Rooting method. Also, Magisk allows you to use Mods and Customize your Android Device without modifying the System partition. You may have heard about Xposed Framework which is used to add features by Installing Modules, well, Magisk is the Modern version of Xposed. Moreover, there are lots of Modules available for Magisk.
What is Magisk Manager

Xposed Framework
Xposed is a framework used to modify Android by installing Modules. It adds features to the Android by simply installing some APKs instead of flashing a whole new ROM.
When Magisk came, Xposed lost the attention because Magisk did the same thing without touching the System Partition and Xposed had some problems with Android Nougat.
But then Xposed came as a Magisk Module which means that you can use Xposed systemless-ly. Xposed has a large Module catalog, much bigger than Magisk’s.
