I was curious how Android apps actually get built under the hood, and that curiosity led me to build my own toolchain: a DSL for Dalvik bytecode built with fasmg, with native libraries built via Zig.

I think it's a fairly interesting result on its own, and what's neat is how minimal it is, no Android Studio needed at all. There are fairly involved examples with themes, icons, shaders, audio APIs, networking APIs, and more.

Would be happy to see someone else pick it up and take it further.
