SDK Manager question

Hi folks,

I want to start learn how to develope an android. Which packages do I need to download from the SDK manager?

My goal is to develop for 3 or 4 highest android versions first. So do I need all packages selected in the android version of the SDK manager, or am I good with only the SDK Platform package?

Thanx

Grigorij

You should be fine with what Android Studio downloads by default. Also, if you're ever missing anything Android Studio is pretty good about telling you what needs to be downloaded.

Hi Ben,
