This is a guide for noob's (just like me) to get going with their Android Kernel Compilation.

NOTE: I myself am a bigginer and I'm trying to share my setup and how I do it - This guide might not be accurate (what I do might be completely wrong), experienced folks can help me and others here by suggesting changes to this gist. ;)

I use Arch Linux (beginners can try Manjaro) just because it's has rolling-release model (install once and forget) and I don't have to fiddle arround for packages.

Install the base-devel package group, which contains necessary packages for compilation such as make and gcc.
