## Building your app automatically
This extension will not build your App. If you would like to run a build each time a debug session is started, you can add a `preLaunchTask` option to your `launch.json` configuration which invokes a build task.
#### .vscode/launch.json
Add a `preLaunchTask` item to the launch configuration:
```json
{
"version": "0.2.0",
"configurations": [
{
"type": "android",
"request": "launch",
"name": "App Build & Launch",
"preLaunchTask": "run gradle",
}
]
}
```
Add a new task to run the build command:
#### .vscode/tasks.json
```json
{
"version": "2.0.0",
"tasks": [
{
"label": "run gradle",
"type": "shell",
"command": "${workspaceFolder}/gradlew",
"args": ["assembleDebug"]
}
]
}
```
