Hello, |

|

not exactly. But in Android Studio (which uses Android SDK) is bundled an |
4 |
emulator using qemu. Android Studio allows you to download an Android image |
5 |
(Android 2.0 up to Android 9) compiled for x86 and run it. |
6 |
This is mainly used for testing apps developed under Android Studio. |
7 |
Maybe this could also be used standalone. |
