Just what I needed, having to use this IDE for part of my A-Level Computer Science project, and this tutorial was very helpful to get me started with it! (Only problem is that you didn't use the dark theme!) Thank you very much!

This is so awesome. Thanks bro. I keep going from frustrated to excited. From discouraged to hopeful. Being a programmer is like being manic depressive.

Lovely articulate presentation. Great enunciation added into the mix, means this video was clear and concise without any of the steep learning curve of most technical videos. Liked, subscribed, and enabled alerts. I'm really enjoying these videos! Thank you for producing such great quality videos Android Authority

Hi Gary, Thanks so much for sharing! I love coding and have finished your tutorial. There's been some updates, so to help others, things to be aware of: 1. Set the minimum SDK to API 14 while making the project. The others have a crazy folder structure and don't match the video. 2. Make sure language is set to Java. KT doesn't work with the code Gary has written. "Void" will not be recognised and so on. 3. While setting up the display set the constraints by clicking the arrows on the right hand palette window. This lets the app know the position of the text "Hello World" in relation to the button. 4. There was only one string named in the string folder under resources. Don't worry just copy it and change app_name to Tap_Me and My Application to Tap Me. When your in the layout screen click the button then find the text box under common attributes, after typing the @ symbol your tap_me variable should show. 5. When running the emulator make sure you have 7GB on your local drive (C:\) even if the studio program installed somewhere else otherwise you'll get: "The emulator process for AVD Nexus_5_API_30 was killed"

Sweet! Thanks for the lessons! I am really enjoying working in Android. :)

Great video, I been studying Java for months now, this is the first time I see android related development, It seems simple enough.

Subscribed. thank you for being clear and having great tutorials. I got tired of the "indian-narrated" tutorials.

I like at the end, he mentions "companion" while the TARDIS is in full view in the background! Coincedence?

Today, I wrote my first Android app. I wrote it with the latest Android SDK. Some of the layouts were different, but I figured it out. The steepest of learning curves usually involve the boilerplate aspects of development. I have no trouble with coding. I've been doing it for decades. I was even coding Java professionally five years ago. But getting past that entry point for a new environment or platform is often the stickiest bit. This video was exactly what I needed to get my first Android app running. Thanks!! Surf Wisely.

PERFECT video for a student like me with basic Java skills and the wish to program an app :) A lot of videos are always from the scratch

Great tutorial Gary!

I just wanted to make a simple app that will take a serial number then will ask for a reading for that serial number. for example ... SN123456 then 000983 then ask SN again then reading .... and so on ... then store those values in some sort of excel file with 2 columns... then when the android device is attached to the PC through whatever means it will copy that excel file to the PC drive so that a program can handle it from there. can i do that with this ?

Well not just an excel file but DIF, CSV, EXCEL, XML or any other data that a Visual Foxpro Application can import. see my trouble is that i am a Visual Foxpro programmer and not an android programmer. we needed an industrial type RFID scanner similar to this www.jepower.net/a/Downloads/PDA/55.html. the aim is to scan RFID tags ( there can be a lot of them ) and then display the result on the screen in LIST form. then allow the user to click on any result and input a certain number. the next problem is how do i get those data from the device into my desktop PC. i have checked on the SDK and it does not support foxpro. however, if i can create a very simple android application on that device that will do just that and allow the user to make a copy of the results to the PC through wifi or direct then the problem is solved. i can think of many ways to do that either by 1. Device have the option to upload directly to a mysql server in PC (eliminating the need for the excel file) OR 2.) copy contents to the PC in a file, foxpro then opens file and uploads the data into mysql server. but i dont know how.

Go for it. However, C++ and Java aren't too dissimilar so you may find you have the same problem with learning Java. There are plenty of languages to try, although for Android app development it is only really C# through Xamarin and Java. Where C# is very similar to Java, syntax wise. In the end, programming isn't for everyone so if you don't find your perfect and preferred language then move on before you are too old to learn something new haha.

Sorry... this video has little or no relevance to the current Android development kit. The windows are different, the folder names are different, the layout is different, and it is simply not possible for a beginner to follow this video and complete the steps. It needs to be updated or removed. I thank the author for putting it up, but it's no longer a useful tool.
