Just follow the steps to extract code from .aar file Ex: libraryproject.aar

1.Rename the library file extension to ".jar" ex.libraryproject.jar

2.Extract the file in a folder.

3.Folder will have AndroidManifest,resources and library files used in the android library project.

4.Folder also have classes.jar file which will have all the classes in the library.

5.To open classes.jar file use jd-gui tool.

6.In jd-gui tool File ->Open File->browse and select classes.jar file.

Late, but will help new viewers.
