How to use it:
Step 1:
- Fork/Clone this repo. Add a local.properties with your sdk location (it should be automatically done by android studio)
- or Manual mode: Download the zip file for this project.
- Copy paste the app folder
- Copy paste the build.gradle and modify applicationId "com.andrei.template" to your package name
- Check the compileSdkVersion, and buildToolsVersion to be the latest
- Run it and see that it's working on your emulator.
- IMPORTANT: Remove the libs that you don't need. Add those that you do.
