export ANDROID_HOME=/usr/local/opt/android-sdk

# Run the android application

$ android

# install “Android SDK Platform-tools”

Chrome Plugin

A simpler way to perform remote debugging directly with Chrome is to install the “ADB Plugin”. It’s a Chrome Plugin/App and can be installed from the Chrome WebStore. All you need is a running Android SDK, nothing else. The ADB Plugin adds a icon to the Chrome toolbar which shows all inspectable targets on connected devices/emulators.
