Building with Maven

If you have Maven 3, the Android SDK and an ANDROID_HOME environment variable, you can simply build with:

$mvn clean install

This expects an Android device to be attached for running instrumentation tests. Alternatively, use the -DskipTests option.

IntelliJ project setup

Import as existing Maven project. Just works.

Can I skip all this Maven stuff?

Yes. However, you'll need to look at the dependencies in the POMs and go hunting for the dependencies yourself.
