Ultimate Android App Template [level: Beginner]

This app template has moved to Kotlin. I strongly suggest you use Kotlin. Kotlin is a fun, powerful language and you should use it.!

old stuff, don't use it please.

Android Arsenal

This is a simple start-template to save you a little time. It doesn't use dagger // mvp // mvvp or any other stuff that requires an more in depth knowledge of android.

how it looks

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.
  • Star this repository
