Which step are you stuck on?

As per the installation guild i am stuck on step 7 of install oppia android . I am unable to see the .aswb folder at project level of my android studio as expected in the instruction .

Approaches already used to resolve the issue

I have tried to build project myself by following instructions of Bazel user guild on api level 34 and had a successful build but yet not able to see the .aswb file in my project structure.

@manas-yu, @subhajitxyz, @theayushyadav11, have any of you experienced this on Linux?

@CyberFranky05, you mentioned that sync was successful regardless. I wonder if this is because you are on a newer version of Android Studio than we have tested so far. Are you able to continue with the remaining steps?

@CyberFranky05 did you actually successfully import and sync the project in Android Studio, or did you build it on the command line (e.g. with bazel build)?

[CyberFranky05]

@BenHenning i build it using CLI yes , as i was unable to run it with the run button

here is the error i am getting if i run it with the run button

[CyberFranky05]

@adhiamboperes the sync wasnt succesful , i was able to build it manully with cli
