How to collect Android logcat without Android Studio IDE

This is pretty handy if issues occur very early in App launch and logs aren't transmitted to the Beta Testing Platform:

Install adb (don't connect the android device yet to your workstation):

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install adb

Connect the android device and then:

$ adb start-server
$ adb devices

At this point you should see your device in the listing

Then you need to start collecting device logs:

$ adb logcat

While you see the logs running in the terminal open the Android App and as soon as your issue is reproduced collect all the logs from the logcat window
