Can anyone recommend a good cloud-based IDE for Android development?
I use Eclipse/ADT on my desktop and AIDE on my Android devices, but it is a hassle to sync the two.
If there is not one available, would anyone recommend using AIDE's premium features to host my application on GIT?

Android Studio Emulator Support We clubbed unparalleled performance of a native-like Android Studio instance over the cloud with support for emulators to enable developers to create Android Virtual Devices for testing their apps as they code.
Anbox is a free and open-source compatibility layer that aims to allow mobile applications and mobile games developed for Android to run on Linux distributions. Canonical introduced Anbox Cloud, for running Android applications in a cloud environment.
If the Android Emulator does not start properly, this problem is often caused by problems with HAXM. HAXM issues are often the result of conflicts with other virtualization technologies, incorrect settings, or an out-of-date HAXM driver. Try reinstalling the HAXM driver, using the steps detailed in Installing HAXM.
You can sign in to your developer account in Android Studio to access additional tools that requires authentication, such as Cloud Tools for Android Studio and the App Actions test tool. By signing in, you give those tools permission to view and manage your data across Google services.
I never found a good cloud-based Android IDE, but here is what I did (an idea for anyone reaching this from Google). This works with Windows, Linux, and (I think) Mac. Please confirm for others if this works for you on a Mac.
Desktop (w/ Eclipse):
Android (w/ AIDE):
That's all there is to it. As long as you make sure you Dropbox before switching from desktop to Android device or vice versa, you essentially have a free, cloud-based Android IDE to develop from a desktop or an Android device.
