As in title. As I know Android Studio need glibc so I need to use container but how about emulation in container? Is it possible? I have x86_64 CPU.

    really? i mean, people have done it for friggin vanilla ass Node.js servers. Android projects can have weird dependencies that a container might help solve (NDK etc).

    i’m not saying that it’s my preferred way to build, but that wasn’t the question.

      Android Studio isn’t just a simple app, nor a single executable, AND it maps out to a bunch of local sockets to your already running host to provide various services. Certainly not going to be easy or stable in a container, especially since they are asking about emulation as well.

        lots of good reasons to spin up containers for development is my point, especially for an embedded system with exotic system dependencies (compared to Node.js, for example).

        Home Assistant is a “simple app” that i have to open ports for.

        does that mean they have a good reason? maybe not.
