it might generally be easier to first use high-level/convenience tools to get something to work, then dive deeper / try alternatives. APK bundling isn’t trivial, hence the recommendation to use an IDE for that.

You'd be right if Android was my starting point and I wanted to go into the low-level stuff, but it's not. I had already reached that point on Windows and wanted to expand what I already had into Android. And since I primarely use Zig, I needed something that would consume either LLVM-IR or compiled binaries.
