    Since I have to work on an Android project which doesn't use Gradle as a build tool, so I always have to find the aar library and extract the classes.jar file from it. Doing it manually was very boring. So I decided to write my own Python (because it's interpreted) script to do this task. The code I have written works very well, but it can be improved by making it cross-platform, efficient, etc.

    So let's start to improve it.

    Note that you have to run this script on your PC, unfortunately.

     Code 
    import zipfile, os

cd = os.getcwd()
for file in os.listdir(cd):
	if file.endswith(".aar"):
		print("Got aar: " + file)
		with zipfile.ZipFile(cd + "\\" + file) as aar:
			aar.extract("classes.jar", cd)
			print("Extracted aar")
		os.rename("classes.jar", os.path.splitext(file)[0] + ".jar")
