WIL:

• setting up android sdk without android-studio is a pain.
  • I manage to do it with the cmline android tools
  • Still can't make the emulator to work for some reason
  • you need build-tools, ndk, platform-tools, the platforms themselves. I think the system-images is only needed for the emulator
• you have to sign your apps to be able to make a release build
  • use keytool to make a keystore. Don't use the mdp you always use for everything
  • on related note I need to figure out how to use the keystore without putting the mdp in Cargo.toml
• the size of the main window needs to be flexible
• googledrive is the easiest way I found to transfer and install my app on my phone (it didn't want to install it from my phone file system)

@Ciantic Ok, I think you want to look into @slint

https://slint.dev/

From their website:
"The #Slint runtime fits in less than 300KiB RAM, features a reactive property system, and is built with #Rust."

They support the Winit backend, so Wayland...✅
