Description

Expand new Gradle project wizard to support Android development. Yeah, this is something that I know nothing about. And I do not know is this sufficient or is there something else required to give Android developers a boost. But seems that the wizard should ask first that desktop or Android. Some packages can't be used on Android and the are some differences in the build.gradle. Essentially the jMonkeyInitializer can be monkeyed off for example.

Here is a related thread on the forums:

Research direction

Start with the new Gradle project wizard and the jMonkeyInitializer mentioned in the issue, then read the linked forum thread for Android-specific context. Determine the required desktop-versus-Android choice, package differences, and build.gradle changes before implementing the wizard support; done means a new Android project can be generated with an appropriate configuration.
