Sublime Text + sometimes LSP is all you need. It might be difficult for people who don't know how to use a build system directly, but those people are underachievers anyways.

Depends, for Android app dev, once you gain experience in writing code, and use Kotlin which is way less verbose, it becomes easier. But in reality, the IDE's autocompletion, syntax error highlights and other niceties do save a lot of time.
