So recently there have been news that an experimental android backend has been in the works but that also brings the question. Is there any instructions on how we can experiment with it? I am quite keen on cross compiling to android.

The GTK demo has an Android app build in their CI. You can see how to get the APK from that from a comment I made here.
Looking at the configuration of the CI, it seems that the heavy lifting of building the APK is done by a separate tool called pixiewood, with a few patches to GLib and meson.
As for GTK itself, most of the Android-specific code seems to be in the GDK backend for Android, which is then used normally by GTK.
