Shashlik: A new Android emulator on Linux?

It seems there is a new Android emulator project called "Shashlik" that aims to run Android apps on Linux with Qt5 and KDE technology.[1] However the information of this project is bare, and I cannot find any screenshots or videos. Do you know anything about it? 66.249.82.133 23:22, 21 July 2015 (EDT)

  • Recently there was a talk about this on KDE Akademy event. (https://dot.kde.org/2015/07/26/akademy-talks-day-2) Here is the quote:

    He went over all the parts that had to be adapted and in the end showed off for the first time "the most exciting black rectangle" he has ever seen. His challenge has been getting anything showing on screen but just this week he has managed to start to succeed with this. There will be a lot of work still to do but this will open up a new world of applications to users of Plasma and other Linux desktops, it will mean we have the world's biggest application ecosystem with Plasma Mobile, as well as being an invaluable developer tool.

    So yeah, it is interesting but the project is quite early state. It kinda explains why there are no screenshots or videos.66.249.82.138 01:04, 27 July 2015 (EDT)
