If you don't want to use the coREPO_OS_OVERRIDEmmand line for building/emulating, there are extensions for VSCode that take care of the integration, just so long as you have installed the command line tools and configured your $PATH, downloaded the emulator, etc. I did not need to install Android Studio, just the command line tools. I recently had some development work on an Android app, and was able to continue using my VSCode. (Not that I'm saying Android Studio is bad, mind, just unnecessary for me - but at least it's not Xcode! Don't get me started on Apples evil empire and their ridiculous restrictive rules trying to force developers to use a mac) With diskspace being something of a premium, I don't like to install bloated IDEs just to compile for my target platform. My IDE of choice is currently VSCode, whilst my development machine is an aging laptop running a Linux distro. I am a cross-platform developer with previous experience developing for Android. Guess I agree that your best option is advocating to intelliJ Best solution I’ve found is two instances of Studio open, thank god my employer doesn’t skimp on the development machines. There simply isn’t anything even close to Android studio for navigating Android, esp Kotlin Android code. Yeah though it does suck, I recently researched Android studio alternatives mostly because I hate their multi window management, and I work on a very large and complex project where having a lot of code open at once really makes me more efficient(like I often ideally want 2-3 working tabs and 2-3 reference tabs at once that I can navigate independently). I mean there are plugins for code completion and stuff to some extent, nothing can compare to Android Studio for Android and IntelliJ for kotlin in general right now, especially when it comes to navigating dependencies and usages or reminding you what constructors are looking for or what functions certain classes provide etc. I guess I was thinking you could use the screen reader on VSCode and jump to studio when you need great code functionality but forgot how much reading that involves too :/ I meant more a hybrid approach in general where you use VSCode or another text editor side by side with Android studio. Oh it’s nowhere close, especially if you’re working on a big project.
