Hi,

I want to reverse engineer api of an Android app to make a custom client that works on linux. I have good understanding of Linux, Networking and coding.

Where should I start? Is it too hard?

If the app has a web counterpart, it's easier to sniff and decode that with your browser's dev tools.

(I realize this isn't what you asked, but dev tools tend to be great and you won't need to jump through as many hoops)
