Android Studio installation for macOS

I installed Android Studio on macOS Mojave.

Android Studio download

First, download the dmg file from Download Android Studio and SDK tools | Android Developers.

Android Studio installation

Install following Install Android Studio | Android Developers.

It's known that using JDK 1.8 when using Android Studio on Mac reduces stability. Until these issues are resolved, you can improve stability by downloading an older version of JDK (JDK 1.6 or earlier).

While this is written, you don’t need to worry about it because Android Studio includes JDK.

That’s all from the Gemba where I installed Android Studio on macOS and want to get into Android development.
