This is not an easy toolchain to get installed and running. It took me _all day_ yesterday to just get the basic sample building on android. It would have saved me a **lot** of time yesterday if I knew I needed to install exactly open jdk 17 and not 20. I don't know why you wouldn't document in the 'quick' install document the easiest steps to quickly install this toolset. 🙄 (Some of the install pain was also because it was not obvious in the install docs that I needed to install the android command line tools also. Additionally confusion over what environment variables were supposed to be ANDROID_HOME / ANDROID_SDK_ROOT) Excuse the frustration from a day wasted due to gaps in the documentation, but seeing the active avoidance of making your docs useful when people are pointing out exactly what needs to change to more easily onboard new users to your software is infuriating. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
