Two more GSoC ideas for the Android mode

Working on the two following issues would be very important:

  • The ant scripts and android tool have been removed from the latest version of the SDK tools, thus breaking the mode. We need to transition to gradle as the internal build system. The mode can already be built using gradle, and it exports sketches as gradle projects, so many elements already in place to start the transition.

  • The emulator support is clunky, i.e.: when running for the first time, the mode does not wait for the emulator to start up, the Processing AVDs could be configured better, the latest version of the wear emulator does not work on OSX, and AVDs cannot be created on Linux.
