Step 3
◼ Verify the Flutter SDK path specifies the SDK’s location (select Install
SDK… if the text field is blank)
9
Step 4

Step 5: Click Finish

Step 6
◼ Wait for Android Studio to install the SDK and create the project.
◼ When creating a new Flutter app, some Flutter IDE plugins ask for a company
domain name in reverse order, something like com.example. The company
domain name and project name are used together as the package name for
Android (the Bundle ID for iOS) when the app is released. If you think that
the app might be released, it’s better to specify the package name now. The
package name can’t be changed once the app is released, so make the name
unique.

Running the application
◼ Step 1: Locate the main Android Studio toolbar
13
Step 2
◼ In the target selector, select an Android device for running the app. If none are listed as
available, select Tools> Android > AVD Manager and create one there. For details,
see Managing AVDs.
14
Step 3
◼ Click the run icon in the toolbar, or invoke the menu item Run > Run.
◼ After the app build completes, you’ll see the starter app on your device.
