Research direction

Start by reviewing the project’s Android Gradle configuration and the :frontend:app evaluation path implicated by the AppPlugin error. Determine whether non-Android JVM projects are intended to be supported and what build behavior and configuration would define completion; the issue does not name files or tests.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I tried using the project in non android project to build rust dependency and got:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

* What went wrong:
A problem occurred configuring project ':frontend:app'.
> Failed to notify project evaluation listener.
   > com/android/build/gradle/AppPlugin

Unable to load class 'com.android.build.gradle.AppPlugin'.

This is an unexpected error. Please file a bug containing the idea.log file.

Which makes sense since this targets android, however is there any particular reason not to target JVM as well?
