# avd-launcher
Launch an Android Virtual Device without Android Studio.
## But why?
We can already launch AVDs without Android Studio by using the `emulator` command.
```
$ emulator -avd avd_name
```
This CLI tool does nothing more than wrap the above command and provides an easier way to interface.

## Install
Install via npm:
```
$ npm install --global avd-launcher
```
Then run `avd launch` from your terminal.
## Notes
Currently, this tool assumes that you have an `ANDROID_HOME` environment variable set in your shell that points to a valid Android sdk directory.
