Android development is just very janky. There’s just so many pieces that sort of work together, until they don’t. It is Kotlin compiling to Franken-Java with a thick crusty layer of compatibility libraries because OS updates are completely broken on Android. ADB and Gradle just randomly break sometimes. The emulator is slow.
I’m not surprised that people are reaching for Flutter and React Native instead.
