System Requirements
To participate in coding and other project activities, each person on your team requires a reasonably capable computer. You must have administrative rights on this machine, which disqualifies the use of lab computers. A notebook computer is recommended so that you can work on your project in-class.
Recommended specifications:
- Windows, macOS or Linux
- 8 GB of RAM or more
- 50 GB of free drive space
A physical phone is NOT required for Android development, since you can use an Android Virtual Device (AVD).
