How to rebuild linux kernel with options modified

I want to install Anbox while my linux kernel is 5.8.12. According to this wiki page, https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Anbox, I need to rebuild my linux kernel, but how to do that? I have done lots of searches on the Internet but just get confused about where to start.

There is an AUR package with useful comments. Currently, it's probably not all to easy to get it compiled though.

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/68077 implemented Anbox support in linux-zen 5.8.13.zen1-2.
If kernel changes are still required please reopen that bug report.
