Welcome back.
And this video, we're going to look at how to install Android Studio on a Mac.
So therefore, you just have to search for download Android Studio and usually you should get to developer
that Android dot com with your first link here.
So let's just go there, and once you hear you can download Android Studio and you have multiple download
options, so in case you want to use the latest version.
You can, of course, just download it directly from where you were here at the top so you can just
click on download Android Studio.
Then you have to read through the license agreement and download Android Studio for Mac.
So you can see in this case is 3.6 that one.
I'm using an Android studio for Canary version for the course, but you can easily just use Android
Studio 3.6 or whichever version is out at the moment when you download it.
So usually they make changes, but it's not like huge changes, so no worries if the version is different
than the one that you can see here on the screen.
All right.
So then just download this file, and once it's done downloading, you can just open up the DMG file.
By the way, if you go to download options here, you can find that there are offline components that
you can download command line tools and also the system requirements that there are for Android Studio
to work properly.
So you can see you won't need Mac OS x ten point ten Yosemite or higher and then four gigabyte of RAM
minimum.
Eight gigabytes are recommended.
And you need some available disk, even though I would recommend more than just for Gigabyte because
you will also need the emulator and emulator usually is bigger than just 1.5 gigabyte.
All right.
You once the download is done, you can just click on the DMG file and that will then unpack the file
and start installing.
OK, so at this point, you just need to drag Android Studio to your applications.
Just drag it over to your applications.
And then it will copy Android Studio to your applications.
All right, now, at this point, you can go over to your applications and find Android Studio there.
And here it says that the app is downloaded from the internet and whether you want to open it or not.
And here you will have to press open if you want to proceed.
And there you see, Andrew Studio pops up, so here you can import Android Studio settings if you have
any.
But you can also just choose do not import settings if you don't have any.
So it's no problem.
You come to this Android studio setup wizard in which you can just press next and then you can decide
which type of setup you want to do the standard or the custom one.
If you want to make more changes than you would use to custom one, usually the standard one is totally
fine.
So you can select the UI theme I'm personally using the dark color theme.
So the darker theme, if you prefer that one, you can choose.
This will delight one however you prefer.
All right.
And then you can just press finish, and the final download of all of the missing components is going
to start.
This can, of course, take a little while.
And once the download is done, you can simply press finish.
OK, and at that point, you can start a new Android Studio project, and that's what we're going to
do in the next video.
So see you there.
