Hi all, much of what I have read recommends Android Studio to create Android apps, but I’m a bit wary since it’s developed by Google. Are there any other good alternatives that are ideally open-source?
I am currently running Fedora 43 KDE, and I use VSCodium as my main code editor, mostly Python at the moment. Are there any plugins I could use to enable Kotlin support/specific Android dev stuff in VSCodium?
Android Studio is a fork of JetBrains’ IntelliJ. You could use the latter, which has support for Kotlin and Android, but I’m unsure how feature complete it is compared to Android Studio (JetBrains say “includes the Android Studio’s functionality”[1])

I’ll tty that then, and see how it goes.
