 If you have Node.js installed, you can also build and run unit tests using
 `ctest`. See `BUILD_TESTS` above.
 
+@subsection building-cross-android Crosscompiling for Android ARM and x86
+
+You will need [Android NDK](https://developer.android.com/tools/sdk/ndk/index.html)
+installed and configured.
+
+Don't forget to adapt `ANDROID_NDK_ROOT` in `generic/Android-*.cmake` to path
+where NDK is installed. Default is `/opt/android-ndk`. Adapt also
+`ANDROID_SYSROOT` to your preferred API level. You might also need to update
+`ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_PREFIX` and `ANDROID_TOOLCHAIN_ROOT` to fit your system.
+
+Then create build directory and run cmake and make in it. The toolchain needs
+access to its platform file, so be sure to properly set **absolute** path to
+`modules/` directory containing `Platform/Android.cmake`. Also set
+`CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` to `/usr` subdirectory of `ANDROID_SYSROOT`.
+
+Note that `BUILD_STATIC` is implicitly enabled, because manually loading all
+depending shared libraries using JNI would be too inconvenient. Decision
+between OpenGL ES 2.0 and ES 3.0 is left up to the user (i.e. you need to set
+`TARGET_GLES2` to `ON` or `OFF`).
