Quick Guide

The easiest way to compile and run reVC is to first install Android Studio on your machine.

You'll need git installed in your computer to pull the code. You can get it here. Then open Command Prompt and change directory (cd) to a path where you would like to store the code like C:\Android. Don't forget to include the --recursive parameter. Otherwise additional dependencies won't be downloaded and the code will not compile.

This will make sure you have all the necessary files, including submodules and dependencies.

Setting up Android Studio

  1. Open Android Studio.
  2. Select Open an existing Android Studio project.
  3. Navigate to the directory where you cloned the repository and select the project folder.

Android Studio will automatically configure the required files and dependencies.

Compiling and Running

Once the project is open in Android Studio, follow these steps to compile and run:

  1. Check SDK Setup: Make sure Android Studio is configured to use the correct SDK. You can check this under File > Project Structure > SDK Location.

  2. Select Target Device: Choose your Android device or an Emulator from the top bar in Android Studio. If you don't have an emulator configured, you can create one via Tools > AVD Manager.

  3. Compile and Run: To compile the project, just click the Run button (green play icon) on the toolbar or use the shortcut Shift + F10.

Now you're ready to compile and run reVC in Android Studio! If you need more details or run into any issues during the process, feel free to ask!
