- Mar 30. In this class, we will use Android Studio as our development IDE. You can download it from the site developer.android.com. Select the AndroidStudio link at the top of the page and click the DOWNLOAD ANDROID STUDIO button. If you are on a Windows or Mac machine, this web page is smart enough to know which and download the appropriate version (.exe file for Windows; .dmg file for Mac). Make sure that you download the Panda 2 Version of Android Studio.
- Mar 30. On some older Windows machines, to run Android Studio, you may need Intel
Virtualization, also known as Intel HAXM, to be enabled on your machine. Some manufacturers
of Windows computers leave this turned
off by default. Although the steps for enabling Intel Virtualization on vary
from brand to brand, here are the steps that I used to enable it on my machine,
which is a Lenovo:
- To bring up the IndydeH20 Setup menu, boot up your Windows machine while holding down the F2 key.
- Use right arrow key to move to the Configuration Tab.
- Use down arrow key to select Intel Virtual Technology. Press enter to select.
- Use up or down key to select Enabled.
- Press Enter and F10 to Save and Exit
Intel Virtualization is not something you need to set on a Mac machine.
