    I was actually surprised how easy and well it works. What's the reason you feel like that?

    You don't have to put your phone up there for debugging

    @foox I agree with you that it's easy but it's painfully slow compared it to flutter or react native. Every build takes like 1-3 minutes to run and then debug

    @Xoka isn't it a pain in the ass emulator then? I fail to see how that would help the debugging process either way.

    On the other hand, debugging flutter code (native aswell) is a dream

    @Xoka think this is just normal for native and compiled executables. If not already done, try to use "make" or similar and make sure you use all cores for building.

    man, this is java, read a book about OOP and structure your code in a way that everyone could understand.
    If you can't debug your own code, you have to write a better code.

    On the other hand the android studio is fucked

    Oh and for native libraries... build tests in that native language (c or go or whatever) and run them separately wherever it is easier to debug the tests!

    @D3adCode the thing is, I'm debugging someone else's code. And yes, Android studio, specially the more updates ones are really messed up
