Getting Started with Android App Runtime for Chrome

Having used ARC, I'm surprised at how well it works. ARC runs applications noticeably faster than my Nexus 5, and it runs amazing well compared to the Android emulator. I think in the next few months well see someone creating a plugin for Android Studio that will allow you to use it as opposed to using the standard emulator with Intel HAXM.

Genymotion is actually pretty good when compared to the standard terrible emulator. (still neither of them hold a candle to the iOS simulator)

That would be great. One of the reasons I never got into android development is the unbearable performance of the emulator.

Same here, however I've recently been doing some android and if you Install Genymotion it's actually not as terrible.
