The easiest way is to install Android Studio by adding <code>pkgs.android-studio</code> to your list of packages in configuration.nix.


If you prefer [[Vscode|VSCode]], you can create a [[Development environment with nix-shell|dev-shell]] with the packages "jdk", "flutter", and a preferred android sdk such as the preconfigured one "androidenv.androidPkgs_9_0.androidsdk" (mentioned in the Android wiki page).
