Just curious if anyone has done any android development with Cursor, if so what type of setup and what language(s).
I tried with the kotlin-lsp. It works okay for some small projects.
They don’t recommended it for Android projects (many open issues on GitHub - fwcd/kotlin-language-server: Kotlin code completion, diagnostics and more for any editor/IDE using the Language Server Protocol), but it is better than nothing.
How about writing code in cursor and running then in Android studio? Will that work? I worked for 2 weeks in cursor for backend development and it’s amazingly efficient. Badly want this to be setup for Android development

That would be great!
Hi, I’m not sure about Android, but for iOS, I’ve seen how you can integrate Cursor with Xcode. Here’s a video demonstration:
So is there a similar integration with android studio?
I would like Cursor IDE to support Android development as well.
In my experience with VS Community 2022, I could open its folder with Cursor and let it handle tasks.
I installed Android IDE (an abandoned ware) on my Chromebook s android along with Cursor ARM in Linux Beta. I expect to use Cursor to open a project by placing the Android dev folder in a shared location, like MyFiles/Downloads.
For pure Android development, I suggest using a rooted Android device with the Kiwi browser for Chrome extensions and a chroot Linux environment. You can install Android IDE on Android.
However, I moved away from the rooted environment, so I need to find a way to share the project folder between Android and the chroot Linux setup.
