1、 Installation environment and download resources

1.1 Installation environment

• Computer system: Windows 10
• JDK version: 1.8
• Android Studio : 3.2.1

1.2 Download Resources

Enter the Android Studio official website, select Android Studio and click it;

 

Select Android Studio - DOWNLOAD - DOWNLOAD ANDROID STUDIO to download

 

Start downloading, check the agreement and click Start Download

 

II. Install Android Studio

2.1 Installing Android Studio

After downloading the installation package of Android Studio, double-click to open it for installation.

 

Click Next to proceed to the next step.

 

Check the Android Virtual Device option, and then click Next to proceed to the next step.

 

Select the local path to install Android Studio. I do not recommend installing it on the C disk.

 

After the previous installation settings are completed, click Install to install, and then wait for the installation to complete.

 

 

After installation, click Finish to start Android Studio. At this time, some preliminary settings will be made before the first startup.

2.2 Preliminary settings

Starting Android Studio for the first time will make some preliminary settings.

 

The current Android Studio installation package only includes itself and does not include the Android SDK, so when it is first started, it tells you that you cannot access the list of Android SDK add ons. At this time, click Cancel to exit, and the SDK will be downloaded later.

 

Click Next to proceed to the next step.

 

Here is the setting type of Android Studio. Standard is the standard mode. If you want to save time, you can select this option, and some subsequent setting steps will be skipped. Here we habitually choose Custom custom mode.

 

Here is the selection of software interface theme, a darker Darcula and a brighter Intellij. It's better to choose according to your own habits. Personally, I prefer Darcula theme.

 

This is to set the SDK components. Since I have already installed the Android SDK and Android Virtual Device, there is no need to install them here. If you do not install it, check the items you need to install in the left options. It is recommended that you check all items. At the same time, set the local path of the Android SDK in the following Android SDK Location. After setting, click Next to install.

 

This is to confirm your previous selection. If you need to modify the settings, click Previous to return to the previous one. If you are sure to set it like this, click Finish to complete the setting.

 

Because I have already installed the Android SDK in advance, "Nothing to do!" is displayed here. If you have not installed the Android SDK, the corresponding resources of the Android SDK will be downloaded at this time. Click Finish after downloading.
