First make sure you have installed compatible jdk version on your system. You can download the latest jdk from here
In this tutorial I am not going to show the whole manual process of installing Eclipse, plugins and sdk. For some reason I like to use portable ADT BUNDLE. Its very easy and quick to make ready your android development environment.
Download ADT BUNDLE and extract the zip forlder
The folder contains eclipse and sdk folder where every thing is pre-installed. Run eclipse.exe from eclipse folder. It will appear our working workstation which refers where our projects will be saved. Locate your preferred workstation location.
This is enough to make our first app but there are two things we have to do. One is install other packages to support on the specific devices.
Go to All Programs > Android SDK Tools > SDK Manager select the devices and libraries you want to install & click install packages
And the second is setting up a virtual device (Emulator) to run our application.
From Eclipse menu navigate Window > AVD Manager> Click New button to create a new Virtual Device for emulator. Fill up the following information or set up as you required and finish by clicking Create AVD button.
