Scala Programming for Android

Question

I have followed the tutorial at Scala and Android with Scala 2.7.3 final. The resulting Android App works but even the most basic application takes several minutes

Answer 1

Developing Android apps for Scala is continuously evolving. The current best way to do it appears to SBT in conjunction with the android-sdk-plugin, which is maintained* and works well for me in my Scala/Android project. A somewhat recent example that demonstrates the use of this plugin with the already mentioned Scaloid can also be found.

Please note that this question is a typical example of a question with outdated answers on Stack Overflow. This answer will likely become outdated at some point as well.

* The other SBT based projects mentioned in this answer thread don't appear to have code being written for them in the last six months at the time of writing. They may have compatibility issues with newer versions of Scala and SBT.
