Chapter 1 - Start a new project

We aim to just get a working blank program up and running for this chapter.

  • The first thing we need to do is File > New > New Project
  • Create New Project
    • Set the Application name and Company domain to your desire
    • Make sure to have Include C++ support
  • API Level
    • As mentioned we are doing this project with the DevKit not in mind
      • If you are using the DevKit then change to API 19
  • Empty Activity
    • This is optional, but I like the boilerplate it sets up with Empty Activity
  • Name Activity
    • This is a total personal decision for what you call your Activity class

  • Toolchain

    • I have found no need to not use the default toolchain
      • If there is a reason to not use what this image shows then please create pull request or issue

  • NOTE: If it creates an androidTest and test folder in your Java folder you can ignore these. We are just using the main folder for this tutorial. Feel free to write your own test. Even better if you write a section in this tutorial on how to setup useful Tango/NDK testing!
