I decided to work on some Android development project on Ubuntu. I had to switch because a library I was trying to use had to be built with the Android NDK. (Windows really took a dump on me when I tried to use Cygwin). Since this was my first install of Android and Java on my linux machine, I had to setup the PATHS in order for me to use them in terminal. Here is how to add them
#open your terminal and type nano ~/.bashrc #Add to the top of file: (remember you have to tell linux where the sdk directory is) #for me, I had my SDK in the home/username directory represented by ~. export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk-linux/tools export PATH=${PATH}:~/android-sdk-linux/platform-tools #press ctrl + X, then Y to confirm and ENTER to exit #More than likely, you will need to restart #When you open terminal, you should be able to #type 'android' without quotations and it should bring up SDK manager
