Crosswalk performance comparison

This project contains test applications to compare the performance of two mobile application frameworks:

HTML5 stack with the Chromium-based Crosswalk runtime and the Polymer material design toolkit
native Android apps using the Java language and Android's standard UI libraries

Building

The build system expects Linux; I used Debian 8.

sudo apt-get install ant build-essential cssmin git npm python uglifyjs zip (or the equivalent for non-Debian)
Unpack the Android SDK to ~/android-sdk_r24.0.1-linux/
Run ~/android-sdk\_r24.0.1-linux/tools/android sdk (requires X11 GUI or display forwarding via e.g. xpra)
Install the latest Android SDK Tools (I used revision 21), Android SDK Platform-tools (I used revision 21), Android SDK Build-tools (I used revision 21.1.2),
Install Android 5.0.1 (API 21) SDK Platform (I used revision 2)
Install the latest Android Support Repository (I used revision 10) and Android Support Library (I used revision 21.0.3)
Run make init
