<WRAP center round box 60%>This guide is based on Android Studio Electric Eel (which ships with SDK 33). If you need to set up a development environment for Android, you must first ensure you have completed the [[en:tutorials:android:getting_android_tools_and_orx|Getting Android Studio and Orx]] step first.</WRAP>


===== Compiling the Orx Library and the Android Demo Project =====

**1. Compiling the Orx library for Android**

   cd orx/code/build/android
   build.bat

For Linux or Mac use ''build.sh'' instead. 

The compiled libraries will be located under ''orx\code\build\android\orx\build\outputs\aar''

  - orx-debug.aar
  - orx-profile.aar
  - orx-release.aar

**2. Compiling the Android Demo**

Compile the Demo which links in the static Orx library that we prepared in step 1:

   cd <DEV_FOLDER>/orx/code/demo/android
   build.bat

For Linux or Mac use ''build.sh'' instead. 

An APK file (one each for debug, profile and release) be created are available at: ''orx\code\demo\android\app\build\outputs\apk''

You can copy this to your Android device to test.
