-Android Studio is a new Android development environment based
-on IntelliJ IDEA. It provides new features and improvements over
-Eclipse ADT and will be the official Android IDE once it's
-ready.
+Android Studio Integrated Development Environment (IDE)
+
+Android Studio is the official integrated development environment for Google's
+Android operating system, built on JetBrains' IntelliJ IDEA software and
+designed specifically for Android development. It is available for download on
+Windows, macOS and Linux based operating systems. It is a replacement for the
+Eclipse Android Development Tools as primary IDE for native Android
+application development.
+
+NOTE:
+ ****
+ YOU MUST AGREE TO GOOGLE'S DOWNLOAD AGREEMENT BEFORE YOU CAN DOWNLOAD
+ ANDROID STUDIO BINARY PACKAGE FROM THEM. THIS MEANS THAT YOU HAVE TO USE
+ SOME SORT OF WEB BROWSER, E.G. FIREFOX, TO DOWNLOAD IT. LINKS, WGET, ET AL
+ WILL NOT WORK
+ ****
-After having installed this package, run Android Studio with:
- android-studio
-
-# Details
-
-On top of the capabilities you expect from IntelliJ,
-Android Studio offers:
-
- - Flexible Gradle-based build system.
- - Build variants and multiple APK generation.
- - Expanded template support for Google Services and various
- device types.
- - Rich layout editor with support for theme editing.
- - Lint tools to catch performance, usability, version
- compatibility, and other problems.
- - ProGuard and app-signing capabilities.
- - Built-in support for Google Cloud Platform, making it easy
- to integrate Google Cloud Messaging and App Engine.
-
-# General tips
-- google-droid-fonts package may give you font issues with IntelliJ
- based applications (like Android Studio), and removing it should
- suffice to fix the issues.
-- An embedded version of JDK is included in this package for
- Android Studio, which is needed to use it effectively.
- However, I suggest to install an independent version (available in
- slackbuilds.org).
- If you already have JDK installed, you may want to specify it under
- File → Project Structure → SDK Location
- - Uncheck "Use embedded JDK", and
- - set the right path (likely /usr/lib/java).
-
-# No multilib systems
-Android Studio "requires" a multilib system. It is however possible
-to use PART of its functionality with a 32-bit Slackware or a
-64-bit non-multilib Slackware64.
-
-## Slackware (32-bit) tips.
-- An embedded version of JDK is included in this package for
- Android Studio. However, it does not work in 32 bit Slackware
- and, therefore, jdk is required (available in SlackBuild.org).
-- You unlikely can use adb.
-- A downgrade of some tools is required to create APKs:
- - Gradle 3.2 (File → Project Structure → Project)
- - Android plugin 2.2.2 (File → Project Structure → Project)
- - Build Tools Version 23.0.3 (File → Project Structure → app under Modules)
-
-## Slackware64 tips.
-You will experience some problems installing the Android SDK (as it uses
-some 32-bit binaries) and running 32-bit AVDs.
