Android Studio

Follow the install guide, but here is a quick start:

• Unzip the download where you have a couple GB of space
• Install some required 32-bit libraries

sudo apt-get install libc6:i386 libncurses5:i386 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1 libbz2-1.0:i386

• start it

cd android-studio/bin
./studio.sh

• Help > Check for Update
• Tools > Create desktop entry
• During viper install, I created this folder and told it to put the Sdk (~2GB) here, along with an emulator:

/home/m/bigdata/apps/Android/Sdk

• TODO (from install wizard recommendation): enable kernel-mode virtual machine (KVM) for faster android emulator performance

Good starting points

• First app
• IDE intro
