title: Creating Android Studio Plugin with UI
body: <p>I am surprised I couldn't find any post on this question. I am looking to build a plugin that works as a sidebar control in Android Studio similar to how Fabric's dependency works (Illustrated below). Where can I find resources on how to get started on building this and are there any example projects on Github?</p>
  
  <p>Objectives:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Allow the developers to integrate the library as a gradle dependency</li>
  <li>Display a Sidebar User interface for the developers to interact with</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I referred to the official <a href="http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/welcome.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">IntelliJ Docs</a> but I couldn't find any information on UI-based plugin development.</p>
  
  <p>Questions: </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>1) Are there any development kits to build the UI?</p>
    
    <p>2) Documentation on developing the plugin</p>
