Looking for tips, tricks, and experiences of comrades who’ve developed Android apps using Vim, Neovim, or other text editors rather than Android Studio.
It’s been a while since I did any Android development but I want to develop an app for personal use. Between then and now I’ve been using Neovim for everything so I’m loathe to go back to Android Studio but it handles a lot of boiler plate for new projects.
Has anyone got any thoughts or tools to share? I’m very comfortable in the CLI so my dream setup would be using Neovim as a code editor and running build commands etc in a terminal nearby.
Cheers for the reply comrade.
Since this is just a personal project I’ll be installing the app just on my phone via USB and
adb, and don’t need a proper CI/CD build system. I just need to compile on my machine and stick the apk file onto my phone.
