    Lecture no 2: (Installation of IDE + Make First Android App)
    Step 1: Install Java
    • Android Studio is a Java development environment, so you need to
    make sure the right version of Java is installed on your machine.

    • First, check the Android Studio system requirements to see which


    versions of the Java Development Kit (JDK) and Java Runtime Edition
    (JRE) you need.

    2
    Install Android Studio
    • Once you have Java up and running, you can download Android
    Studio from here: https://developer.android.com/studio
    • This page also includes installation instructions. Follow the
    instructions to install Android Studio on your computer. Once you’ve
    installed Android Studio, open it and follow the instructions to add
    the latest SDK tools and support libraries.

    3
    Install Android Studio (Cont.)
    • Android Studio is the official integrated development environment
    (IDE) for Google's Android operating system, built on JetBrains' IntelliJ
    IDEA software and designed specifically for Android development.

    This application name is shown in Google
    Play Store and various other places, too

    The package name of an Android app


    uniquely identifies your app on the
    device, in Google Play Store, and in
    supported third-party Android stores.
    The minimum required SDK is
    the lowest version your app
    will support. Your app will run You can also select Kotlin from here
    on devices with this level API
    or higher. It won’t run on
    devices with a lower API.

    Compile, package, deploy and run

    13
    Run the app in the Virtual Device /
    Emulator
    • The Android emulator allows you to run your app on an Android
    virtual device (AVD). The AVD behaves just like a physical Android
    device. You can set up numerous AVDs, each emulating a different
    type of device.

    14
    15
    The system image gives you an installed version of the Android
    operating system.

    16
    17
    Run the app on Physical Device
    • Enable USB debugging on your device.
    • On most devices running Android 3.2 or older, you can find the option under
    Settings > Applications > Development.
    • On Android 4.0 and newer, it's in Settings > Developer options.
    • On Android 4.2 and newer, Developer options is hidden by default. To make it
    available, go to Settings > About phone and tap Build number seven times.
    Return to the previous screen to find Developer options.

    Main Menu

    Allows you to do several actions:


    • New Project, save, open Project
    • Manage IDE settings
    • Edit the toolbars and other sections
    • Inspect, analyze the code
    • Build project, clean project, generate

    Manifest.xml
    • Every application must have an
    AndroidManifest.xml file
    • The manifest file presents essential information
    about your app to the Android system, information
    the system must have before it can run any of the
    app's code.
    • More about the Manifest file:
    http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifes
    t/manifest-intro.html

    23
    Manifest.xml (Cont.)
    • Your app must declare all its components in this file.
    • Identify any user permissions the app requires, such as Internet
    access or read-access to the user's contacts.
    • Declare the minimum API Level required by the app.
    • Declare hardware and software features used or required by the app,
    such as a Camera, Bluetooth services, or a Multi Touch screen.

    24
    Java
    • This is where all your source code files will go.
    • MainActivity.java: This is the auto-generated
    Activity Class with the name you entered into
    the project creation wizard.

    25
    res
    • The res/values folder is used to store the values
    for the resources that are used in many android
    projects to include features of color, styles,
    dimensions etc.
    • For any type of resource, you can specify
    default and multiple alternative resources for
    your application:

    26
    Default and Alternate Resources
    • Default resources are those that should be used regardless of the
    device configuration or when there are no alternative resources that
    match the current configuration.
    • Alternative resources are those that you've designed for use with a
    specific configuration. To specify that a group of resources are for a
    specific configuration, append an appropriate configuration qualifier
    to the directory name.

    27
    Default Resources

    28
    Alternate Resources

    29
    res (Cont.)
    • drawable: Bitmap files (.png, .9.png, .jpg, .gif) or XML files that are
    compiled into drawable resource.
    • layout: XML files that define a user interface layout.
    • mipmap: place your app/launcher icons here.
    • menus: XML files that define application menus, such as an Options
    Menu, Context Menu, or Sub Menu.
    • values: XML files that contain simple values, such as strings, string
    arrays, quantity strings, integers, and colors.

    30
    Gradle
    • Android Studio uses Gradle, an advanced build toolkit, to automate
    and manage the build process while letting you define flexible,
    custom build configurations.
    • The Android Gradle plugin works with the build toolkit to provide
    processes and configurable settings that are specific to building and
    testing Android apps.
