Yeoman generator for Android.
Not every new computer comes with a Yeoman pre-installed. He lives in the npm package repository. You only have to ask for him once, then he packs up and moves into your hard drive. Make sure you clean up, he likes new and shiny things.
$ npm install -g yo
Install generator-android
:
npm install -g generator-android
Make a new directory and cd
into it:
mkdir my-shiny-project && cd $_
Finally, initiate the generator:
$ yo android
