Description
I'd like to integrate this project directly into my application so that if Google Play Services are unavailable on my current device, I can use this library instead. This would allow my app to have similar experience on both Google Play devices and non-Google Play devices.
I tried doing this myself but ran into an issue. I changed the "build.gradle" file in "play-services-core" module from "apply plugin: 'com.android.application'" to apply plugin: 'com.android.library'. Everything builds okay. however, since the code is now contained in library modules (aar), each indivual module (approx. 10) needs to be integrated into my app. It would be better if there was a single aar.

Research direction
Start with play-services-core/build.gradle and inspect how the roughly ten modules are currently built and packaged as AARs. Determine how the modules could be integrated through one library artifact. Done means an application can integrate a single AAR instead of adding each individual module.
