Wish there was an **Android Studio Lite** version of the IDE that is targeted to low powered devices and has only bare minimum features to develop an app.

the SDK and buildchain work fine in a container.
use whatever editor you want then build in the container.
Nobody’s stopping anyone from using vim and running gradle directly.
./gradlew assembleDebugand you’re good to go.I do this but it’s a pain in the ass. They keep making it harder to access certain features without opening Android Studio (i.e. the AVD manager, logcat, app signing functionality, etc)
Also sometimes gradlew decides to just not build your project and you have to open Android Studio to get it to work. Why? No idea
I don’t even use low power hardware, Android Studio just manages to be an incredible resource hog even on normal hardware
You code Android projects in VIM?
Huge, if true. Please, could you helps us better understand how to successfully leverage vim and gradle across GNU/Linux ?
Use Flutter on VSCode. much lighter
