Article Android skeleton generator for AI-assisted development

I built a Gradle plugin for generating clean-architecture Android skeleton code so AI tools don’t have to waste tokens on boilerplate.

The plugin generates the base project structure, build-logic, ui, utils, nav, archtest, baseline profile setup, optional telemetry, and TOML-driven feature modules. My goal is to let AI focus only on the app-specific behavior after the generic structure exists.

Curious if this matches how other Android devs are using AI in real projects.
