2. Choose File > New > Project. You should see the New Project screen (Figure 1.7).

Let’s go over what each field means to your project as you complete them.


Note

If you’re not seeing the Android folder, you’ll need to make sure you’ve correctly installed the Android Eclipse plug-in. Head back to “Configuring Eclipse” and see where things may have gone awry.


4. Enter a name for your project in the Project Name field.
