Course Curriculum
Learn how to install Android Studio for Android Marshmallow development. You'll also learn about which APIs to target and download files for.
Windows 10 comes in both 32 bit and 64 bit versions and, therefore, you could still need the x86 version on Windows 10.
Important note: x86-based AVDs (including the standard Nexus 5 emulator) won't work on AMD-based systems. This is a non-issue for Macs as they are all Intel-based systems. The workaround is to use an ARM-based emulator image or use GenyMotion instead.
