For context, we don't use the CMake system. What is the best command to use to build the Diligent Engine into a shared library that can be linked by our Android project? Additionally, does it make sense to distribute the Diligent Engine through an AAR (Android Archive) files? It would feel much easier for Android developers to use the Diligent Engine if there were a prebuilt version available on Maven Central.

On our CI, the core libraries are built with gradlew, which produces .so that can then be used in a project.

Yes, this is reasonable. Only we don't have a lot of time to look into this at the moment.
