    According to most delvopers, you need at least 8gbs of ram and a half decent CPU. For best results 16+GB of ram is better running the emulator. You can thank google getting jetbeans to make the IDE for the language (kotlin)

      dark times for people who think software should (gasp!) actualy be efficient in its use of system resources and not require you to buy a new machine every 5 years. we’re heading the wrong way, and don’t remotely seem to be slowing down.

      the worst example is web development; it’s gotten to the point that people are installing “desktop apps” that are in essence separate copies of chromium that only work on one website. when did software start going backwards, and how to stop it?
