CoreDeck
Manage Android emulators without opening Android Studio
Tired of memorizing avdmanager flags or booting Android Studio just to spin up an emulator? CoreDeck gives you a fast, native GUI for AVDs, system images, and emulator control on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Open source, C++20, built with Dear ImGui.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm AbdulMuaz, the maker of CoreDeck.
Like a lot of mobile devs, I spent years bouncing between two extremes whenever I needed to touch the Android emulator: either fire up the whole Android Studio just to launch an AVD, or memorize a small forest of avdmanager / sdkmanager / emulator flags in the terminal. Both felt wrong for something I do every single day.
So I built CoreDeck — a small, native desktop app that wraps the official Android command-line tools in a focused GUI. No reinventing, no shipping a parallel SDK. It just runs the same binaries Android Studio runs, but gives you:
- One-click create / launch / wipe / stop for AVDs
- Browse and install system images without typing a package name
- Live emulator logs with search and auto-scroll
- Per-AVD options for GPU, RAM, CPU, camera, network, boot mode
- Storage overview to clear out heavy AVDs you forgot about
- Onboarding wizard if your SDK isn't auto-detected
Built in C++20 with Dear ImGui, fully open source, and runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux.
It's free, there's no telemetry beyond opt-in crash reports, and the whole codebase is on GitHub if you want to peek under the hood or contribute.
I'd genuinely love to hear:
- What's the most painful part of your current emulator workflow?
- Anything you'd want CoreDeck to handle that it doesn't yet?
Thanks for taking a look — happy to answer anything in the thread 🙌
