I wanted to create an app for android in visual studio community 2022, and all of the tutorials on youtube or internet talks about the template of native activity app or opengl-es app. Although i have installed mobile development with c++ but i cant see any of these templates in my template list. Has it been removed or i need to install something more for that?

or if there is any alternative for that.

    Hi @Sudhanshu Kr. Suman

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! 

    Is your VS installed on a virtual machine or native hardware? 

    From the requirements of creating an Android Native Activity App, Android emulator is required to install.

    But for Android emulator, it must be installed locally. 

    Before you create an Android Native Activity app, please make sure that you have met all installation requirements. 

    Sincerely,

    Anna
