Schedule for Android without Android Studio

Navigation
2

I have a Linux Mint computer that can not run Android Studio very well by having low settings, I was wondering if there is a way to develop applications for Android using an editor and compile by command line ?? (or something similar, I do not know how it works, I did not go deep in studying Android development for not having a tool to develop) I tried to download the "Android SDK Tools" and find a tutorial but I did not get anything that would solve the issue.

Android Studio is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE), and as such offers a number of tools to make development faster, such as code completion , debugging , linting , refactoring , among others. It is not required for development, but it facilitates and accelerates your work .

  • Many of the tools in Android Studio are accessible from the command line, such as the emulator or adb (android debug bridge).

  • You can write Java and XML code with text editors such as Sublime, Atom, Notepad ++ and even vim .

  • You can compile projects using just the gradle from the command line.

The only "required" requirement is the Android SDK. You may need a JDK if you want to compile with gradle .

So yes, it is possible to develop for native Android without Android Studio . The difference is that it will be more laborious and time-consuming, especially if you do not know the Platform APIs.

Here has a guide on how to compile and run your application in an emulator.
