    Nobody’s stopping anyone from using vim and running gradle directly. ./gradlew assembleDebug and 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
