Intro to Course7:21
We'll talk about what we are going to cover in this Android course
Installing Android Studio (Mac)10:07
Learn how to install Android Studio for Android Marshmallow development. You'll also learn about which APIs to target and download files for.
Installing Android Studio (Windows)9:50
Windows 10 comes in both 32 bit and 64 bit versions and, therefore, you could still need the x86 version on Windows 10.
Important note: x86-based AVDs (including the standard Nexus 5 emulator) won't work on AMD-based systems. This is a non-issue for Macs as they are all Intel-based systems. The workaround is to use an ARM-based emulator image or use GenyMotion instead.
