Android Build Environment

OSX Mac M1

If you're using Mac M1 or a later version of Mac OSX, then it is advised that you do not install android-sdk and android-platform-tools via homebrew, as they are soon to be deprecated.

Installing Java Development Kit (JDK)

Use the following command to install the latest JDK. Zulu Open JDK is recommended because it supports both Intel and M1 processors.

brew tap homebrew/cask-versions
brew install --cask zulu11

export ANDROID_SDK_ROOT=$HOME/Library/Android/sdk
export PATH=$PATH:$ANDROID_SDK_ROOT/emulator
