I believe that you are looking for the way to setup Android emulator without Android Studio for your android development on Visual Studio Code or other. Well you are come the right place. I've a person who research on this too and finally I can find a way to make it work and I also try to put more easy way to setup. Let's get start with some steps below.
1. Download file by link below
Download Android EmulatorAfter downloaded you can extract it and see some directories (cmdline-tools, haxm-windows_v7_6_1, JDK).
2. Install Haxm Window
Open directory haxm-windows_v7_6_1 and install it by double click on intelhaxm-android
3. Move Android Emulator Directory to the place you need to store
You can move to any directory but I recommend to move it to drive C (see image above) for easy add configurations fit with my configurations below.
4. Add System Environment
Open System property and click edit environment variables
4.1 Add Variables
ANDROID_HOME = C:\Android Emulator
ANDROID_SDK_ROOT = C:\Android Emulator\cmdline-tools\tools
JAVA_HOME = C:\Android Emulator\JDK\makarablue-jdk
4.2 Add Path
Select Path and Click Edit

C:\Android Emulator\cmdline-tools\tools
C:\Android Emulator\cmdline-tools\tools\bin
5. Setup on CMD
Open cdm and go to Android Emulator Path
Leave commands below :
You can choose android 29 or 30
notice : mbEmulator it is a name of your emulator you can put any name
//Install android 29
sdkmanager "platforms;android-29"
sdkmanager "system-images;android-29;google_apis;x86_64”
sdkmanager “platform-tools"
sdkmanager --licenses
sdkmanager "build-tools;29.0.0"
avdmanager create avd -f --name mbEmulator --package "system-images;android-29;google_apis;x86_64"
