title: Install Android SDK without Studio on Linux for Qt Creator
body: <p>Android Studio does not start on my machine with a warning about unsufficient memory. So I want to work on Android apps with Qt Creator. Unfortunately Google decided to make it harder to just get the Android SDK and refers to Android Studio, so all older tutorials link to dead pages or to pages that are redirected to the Android Studio website.</p>
  
  <p>So what are the steps needed to install the plain SDK, the NDK and enable Qt Creator for Android development?</p>
  
  <p>I documented the steps I took to make it work and will post them in an answer hoping they will be halpful for other people as well.</p>
