+Building Android binary
+=======================
+
+In this article, we briefly describe how to build Android binary using
+`Android NDK <https://developer.android.com/ndk>`_ cross-compiler on
+Debian Linux.
+
+The easiest way to build android binary is use Dockerfile.android.
+See Dockerfile.android for more details. If you cannot use
+Dockerfile.android for whatever reason, continue to read the rest of
+this article.
+
+We offer ``android-config`` script to make the build easier. To make
+the script work, NDK directory must be set to ``NDK`` environment
+variable. NDK directory is the directory where NDK is unpacked:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ $ unzip android-ndk-$NDK_VERSION-linux.zip
+ $ cd android-ndk-$NDK_VERSION
+ $ export NDK=$PWD
+
+The dependent libraries, such as OpenSSL, libev, and c-ares should be
+built with the same NDK toolchain and installed under
+``$NDK/usr/local``. We recommend to build these libraries as static
+library to make the deployment easier. libxml2 support is currently
+disabled.
+
+Although zlib comes with Android NDK, it seems not to be a part of
+public API, so we have to built it for our own. That also provides us
+proper .pc file as a bonus.
+
+Before running ``android-config``, ``NDK`` environment variable must
+be set to point to the correct path.
+
+You need to set ``NGHTTP2`` environment variable to the absolute path
+to the source directory of nghttp2.
+
+To configure OpenSSL, use the following script:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ #!/bin/sh
+
+ . $NGHTTP2/android-env
+
+ export ANDROID_NDK_HOME=$NDK
+ export PATH=$TOOLCHAIN/bin:$PATH
+
+ ./Configure no-shared --prefix=$PREFIX android-arm64
+
+And run the following script to build and install without
+documentation:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ #!/bin/sh
+
+ . $NGHTTP2/android-env
+
+ export PATH=$TOOLCHAIN/bin:$PATH
+
+ make install_sw
+
+To configure libev, use the following script:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ #!/bin/sh
+
+ . $NGHTTP2/android-env
+
+ ./configure \
+ --host=$TARGET \
+ --build=`dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE` \
+ --prefix=$PREFIX \
+ --disable-shared \
+ --enable-static \
+ CPPFLAGS=-I$PREFIX/include \
+ LDFLAGS=-L$PREFIX/lib
+
+And run ``make install`` to build and install.
+
+To configure c-ares, use the following script:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ #!/bin/sh -e
+
+ . $NGHTTP2/android-env
+
+ ./configure \
+ --host=$TARGET \
+ --build=`dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE` \
+ --prefix=$PREFIX \
+ --disable-shared
+
+And run ``make install`` to build and install.
+
+To configure zlib, use the following script:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ #!/bin/sh -e
+
+ . $NGHTTP2/android-env
+
+ export HOST=$TARGET
+
+ ./configure \
+ --prefix=$PREFIX \
+ --libdir=$PREFIX/lib \
+ --includedir=$PREFIX/include \
+ --static
+
+And run ``make install`` to build and install.
+
+After prerequisite libraries are prepared, run ``android-config`` and
+then ``make`` to compile nghttp2 source files.
+
+If all went well, application binaries, such as nghttpx, are created
+under src directory. Strip debugging information from the binary
+using the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ $ $NDK/toolchains/llvm/prebuilt/linux-x86_64/bin/llvm-strip src/nghttpx
