-If you downloaded Android Studio, extract it and then see [Setting Up Android Studio](#setting-up-android-studio).
+If you downloaded Android Studio, install it with the default options and open the project located in `dolphin/Source/Android`
## Setting Up Android Studio
-1. Launch Android Studio, which will start a first-launch wizard.
-2. Choose a custom installation.
-3. If offered a choice of themes, select your preference.
-4. When offered a choice of components, uncheck the "Android Virtual Device" option. ![Android Studio Components][components]
-5. Accept all licenses, and click Finish. Android Studio will download the SDK Tools package automatically. (Ubuntu users, if you get an error running the `mksdcard` tool, make sure the `lib32stdc++6` package is installed.)
-6. At the Android Studio welcome screen, click "Configure", then "SDK Manager".
-7. Use the SDK Manager to get necessary dependencies, as described in [Getting Dependencies](#getting-dependencies).
-8. When done, follow the steps in [Readme.md](Readme.md#building-for-android) to compile and deploy the application.

-## Executing Gradle Tasks
-
-In Android Studio, you can find a list of possible Gradle tasks in a tray at the top right of the screen:
-
-![Gradle Tasks][gradle]
-
-Double clicking any of these tasks will execute it, and also add it to a short list in the main toolbar:
-
-![Gradle Task Shortcuts][shortcut]
+1. Wait for background tasks to complete on the bottom of the window.
+2. Launch the Android SDK Manager by clicking on its icon in Android Studio's main toolbar:
+![Android Studio Package Icon][package-icon]
+3. Install or update the SDK Platform. Choose the API level as defined in the app module's [build.gradle](Source/Android/app/build.gradle#L7) file.
+4. Install a CMake version as defined in the app module's [build.gradle](Source/Android/app/build.gradle#L99) file. The option won't appear until you select `Show Package Details`.
+5. Select `Build Variants` on the left side of the window to choose the build variant and ABI you would like to compile for the `:app` module.
+6. Select the green hammer icon in the main toolbar to build and create the apk in `Source/Android/app/build/outputs/apk`
-Clicking the green triangle next to this list will execute the currently selected task.
+## Compiling from the Command-Line
For command-line users, any task may be executed with `cd Source/Android` followed by `gradlew <task-name>`. In particular, `gradlew assemble` builds debug and release versions of the application (which are placed in `Source/Android/app/build/outputs/apk`).
-## Getting Dependencies
-
-Most dependencies for the Android project are supplied by Gradle automatically. However, Android platform libraries (and a few Google-supplied supplementary libraries) must be downloaded through the Android package manager.
-
-1. Launch the Android SDK Manager by clicking on its icon in Android Studio's main toolbar:
-![Android Studio Package Icon][package-icon]
-2. Install or update the SDK Platform. Choose the API level selected as [compileSdkVersion](Source/Android/app/build.gradle#L4).
-3. Install or update the SDK Tools. CMake, LLDB, and NDK. If you don't use android-studio, please check out https://github.com/Commit451/android-cmake-installer.
-
-In the future, if the project targets a newer version of Android, or uses newer versions of the tools/build-tools packages, it will be necessary to use this tool to download updates.
