What's up my peepz? (who says peepz anymore?) This lesson will get you up and running, and even if you are an absolute beginner, you can do it. Please subscribe and thumbs up the video and you will be a pro in no time

In this lesson you will learn:

-Installing Eclipse
-Set up the link to the ADT
-Setting up the SDK and different android platforms
-Setting up the AVD


This video is the first in a web series that I am creating to help you learn Android programming so you can create apps and eventually how to learn to write games for android phones. I want to explain things in a way that everyone can understand, even if you have no experience with Java, XML, C, OpenGL, or as a matter of fact, any other programming language.




If you do have a lot of experience with programming, these first videos will be really slow for you, but my goal is to get everyone sprinting, but for now we have learn to crawl.

  • i have installed all the softwares.I have put android in eclipse. But when i run eclipse, in the menu "Window" i have got SDK manager and AVD manager on two separate lines. basically they are not combined. i do not know what i did wrong. everything runs smoothly otherwise. how it will affect the use of eclipse and android. Is there any way for me to combine these two? or should i reinstall everything?

    Plz let me know. i posted this request on other youtube channels. still waiting for a response.

  • @2ouioui2 yea the android sdk has updated a bit since I made this video, but no worries, sounds like you have it set up correctly

  • Why is my SDK and AVD separate?

  • @MaddogD86 It has changed since I've made this video, so it looks a bit different now. Don't worry though :D

  • Thumbs up if Bucky bought you here!!!

  • Good intro knowing where to get all the stuff and set it up is great. Two big adds for windows folks new to Java. 1) You also need to find and download the Java development kit or you will get errors saying you don't have a development runtime environment. Do this first before installing eclipse or andriod SDK. 2) For Windows make sure you are in the admin account for this whole tutorial or you get missing file messages because you need admin privledges. Took awhile to figure that out.

see all
