So I am trying to figure out how to write programs in android, but everything I have found about it takes that stance that you need to be proficient at java first, so they don't explain all the new libraries/make-file systems that a native c++ programmer has no clue about.
Now that you see my frustration, is there a simple step by step beginner c++ android tutorial out there, that clearly explains what is going on?
Please edit and move the topic to lounge, you will (i hope) get some answers there...
Generally android uses java for native development although libraries are written in c++. But platforms like unity can help you make game in c++. You may check unity3d tutorials for starters if you want to make game in c++
