Creating a New Android Studio Project
Once Android Studio is installed, click on the Start a New Android Studio Project Button
In the New Project Window edit the project name to something unique (update location if desired) and hit NEXT
Ensure that Phone and Tablet is selected, Choose API 21, and Hit NEXT
Select the Empty Activity and hit NEXT
Leave the default names and hit FINISH
The Android Studio Editor
The Main Editor Window is for viewing, creating, and editing the files that make up your Android Project
The Program Files Window shows you an overview of your whole project
By Selecting the Tab activity_main.xml you can view the Interface Editor
The Interface Editor Window allows you to drag and drop different items into the user interface of your app (ie adding a button to the interface)
You can then program the functionality of these items in the Text Tab which has added some initial code for that component automatically
If you lose a menu just click on the name on the side or bottom of the screen to toggle that menu's visibility
You can expand / contract menus by clicking and dragging the windows dividers (double arrows appear when the divider can be moved)
