Alternatively, if this is not the first time the tree is cloned, simply enter
the folder containing the source and update to the latest, but also make sure
that the submodules are re-inited and updated (because additional submodules may
have been added).

```bash
cd Vulkan-Samples
git pull
git submodule init
git submodule update --recursive
```

### 3. Enter the Vulkan Samples source directory

```bash
cd Vulkan-Samples
```

### 4. Build the gradle files
### 4. Build the necessary Android files

To build/setup the Vulkan-Samples source for Android, follow the instructions in
[the README](https://github.com/KhronosGroup/Vulkan-Samples/blob/main/docs/build.adoc#android)
found in that GitHub repo.

Follow these instructions up until the instructions to activate the build using
Gradle, and then stop until GFXReconstruct has been enabled.

In a nutshell, the following command should be executed to generate the
necessary files, but it has been known to change:

On a clean tree, the first step is to generate the necessary Android files:

```bash
python3 scripts/generate.py android
```

generated using a different script:

```bash
./bldsys/scripts/generate_android_gradle.sh
