-Using predefine Android package compositions
---------------------------------------------
+Using predefined Android package compositions

 to use a predefined composition that contains all basic packages for a specific
 Android version, such as version 9.0 (API-level 28).

 In addition to prebuilt APKs, you can also bind the APK parameter to a

+Notes on environment variables in Android projects
+--------------------------------------------------
+* `ANDROID_SDK_ROOT` should point to the Android SDK. In your Nix expressions, this should be
+  `${androidComposition.androidsdk}/libexec/android-sdk`. Note that `ANDROID_HOME` is deprecated,
+  but if you rely on tools that need it, you can export it too.
+* `ANDROID_NDK_ROOT` should point to the Android NDK, if you're doing NDK development.
+  In your Nix expressions, this should be `${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}/ndk-bundle`.
+
+If you are running the Android Gradle plugin, you need to export GRADLE_OPTS to override aapt2
+to point to the aapt2 binary in the Nix store as well, or use a FHS environment so the packaged
+aapt2 can run. If you don't want to use a FHS environment, something like this should work:
+
+```nix
+let
+  buildToolsVersion = "30.0.3";
+
+  # Use buildToolsVersion when you define androidComposition
+  androidComposition = <...>;
+in
+pkgs.mkShell rec {
+  ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = "${androidComposition.androidsdk}/libexec/android-sdk";
+  ANDROID_NDK_ROOT = "${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}/ndk-bundle";
+
+  # Use the same buildToolsVersion here
+  GRADLE_OPTS = "-Dorg.gradle.project.android.aapt2FromMavenOverride=${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}/build-tools/${buildToolsVersion}/aapt2";
+}
+```
+
+If you are using cmake, you need to add it to PATH in a shell hook or FHS env profile.
+The path is suffixed with a build number, but properly prefixed with the version.
+So, something like this should suffice:
+
+```nix
+let
+  cmakeVersion = "3.10.2";
+
+  # Use cmakeVersion when you define androidComposition
+  androidComposition = <...>;
+in
+pkgs.mkShell rec {
+  ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = "${androidComposition.androidsdk}/libexec/android-sdk";
+  ANDROID_NDK_ROOT = "${ANDROID_SDK_ROOT}/ndk-bundle";
+
+  # Use the same cmakeVersion here
+  shellHook = ''
+    export PATH="$(echo "$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/cmake/${cmakeVersion}".*/bin):$PATH"
+  '';
+}
+```
+
+Note that running Android Studio with ANDROID_SDK_ROOT set will automatically write a
+`local.properties` file with `sdk.dir` set to $ANDROID_SDK_ROOT if one does not already
+exist. If you are using the NDK as well, you may have to add `ndk.dir` to this file.
+
+An example shell.nix that does all this for you is provided in examples/shell.nix.
+This shell.nix includes a shell hook that overwrites local.properties with the correct
+sdk.dir and ndk.dir values. This will ensure that the SDK and NDK directories will
+both be correct when you run Android Studio inside nix-shell.
+
+Notes on improving build.gradle compatibility
+---------------------------------------------
+Ensure that your buildToolsVersion and ndkVersion match what is declared in androidenv.
+If you are using cmake, make sure its declared version is correct too.
+
+Otherwise, you may get cryptic errors from aapt2 and the Android Gradle plugin warning
+that it cannot install the build tools because the SDK directory is not writeable.
+
+```gradle
+android {
+    buildToolsVersion "30.0.3"
+    ndkVersion = "22.0.7026061"
+    externalNativeBuild {
+        cmake {
