Looks good, only wonder if we should add more info on next steps and upcoming work at the end, say linking to swift-java tools. |

| The easiest and recommended way to manage host toolchains on macOS and Linux is to use the [swiftly](https://www.swift.org/swiftly/documentation/swiftly/getting-started) command. Once that has been setup, you can install the host toolchain with: | ||

| ```console | ||
| $ swiftly install 6.2 |

Sorry, but since we are only doing the trunk snapshots initially, could you change all these to that? We can change it to this once we have a release SDK available, which we won't initially.

Motivation:
This article provides instructions for installing and setting up the Android SDK (swiftlang/swift#80788). It describes the process for the SDK bundle that is created with swiftlang/swift-docker#467.
The structure of the article largely follows the format of the Static Linux Getting Started guide (#686).
Modifications:
Add a documentation/articles/swift-android-getting-started.md article and updates to the articles index and authors list.
Result:
There will now be a new article titled "Getting Started with the Swift Android SDK".
