Chapter 1. Installing and Configuring Android Studio

The new and official Google Integrated Development Environment (IDE) Android Studio 2.0 with all its varied features is ready to be explored. How would you like to make your own Android applications and make these applications available to other users on Google Play Store? Can you do this easily? How can you achieve this?

This chapter will show you how to prepare your new Android Studio installation and help you take your first steps in the new environment. We will begin by preparing the system for the installation and downloading the required files. We will see the welcome screen that prompts when running Android Studio for the first time, and we'll configure the Android Software Development Kit (SDK) properly so that you have everything ready to create your first application.

These are the topics we'll be covering in this chapter:

  • Installing Android Studio
  • Running Android Studio for the first time
  • Configuring the Android SDK
