Ubuntu Android Building Tutorial - Android General

I am looking for a tutorial that explains the editing/building process of a ROM within an Ubuntu environment. I have successfully compiled 4.2.2 from source in 12.04. I would like to add to this ROM other features. I was curious if there is a native way about doing this other than using the ROM kitchen. I feel like I have googled for hours and still can't find that gem of a tutorial. Does anyone have suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Advantages of compiling code?

So recently i have gotten seriously interested in the behind the scenes work that our great devs do here. I want to become a dev. I searched Google for how to compile cm7 for my phone and i got to the wiki. But why? They have a cm7 build for my phone already. What's the point of compiling vs flashing atinm's? What can i do to make it better? Or more personal. I couldn't find any threads on xda about this. Also any guides you would recommend for a wanna be dev ?
Thanks guys

Here you can find everything you want know...
The point is to sync the source and snoop around and see how things work.
From there try and bring improvements and submit upstream.
Syncing/building is the first step.
For something like this, unless you want to hack CM or AOSP, you should just use the official CM builds that are published.

Dev starting point?

Hey guys, just wanted to get some advice from the devs around here on where to start with Rom and kernel development. I love flashing new roms and tweaking my play and transformer but I'd also love to know how it works and do some work myself. My question is where do I start?

First you may set up your working environement : http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
Then, on the same site you can dowload the android open source project, or you can dowload team EOS source or any other team sources.
And I can't help you anymore, cause I'm stuck at the same point.
Thanks dude, I've got android SDK and eclipse on my pc and just downloaded some android dev books from kindle app so fingers crossed

Do you want to build or port? Building is where you build a room from source using a device tree. Porting is simply finding a room from a similar phone or tablet. If you Google you can find lots of guides on how to do so. Building will take slightly longer(maybe more) and a device tree and a computer with a distribution of Unix like Ubuntu or Mac os or Linux mint and can take more than a few hours depending on your processor and if you have an ssd
