Getting Ready

Install latest Android Studio version (I’m using RC Dolphin).

Make sure your Kotlin Plugin has 1.7.x version.

Make sure you have Ruby gem installed. gem list

Make sure you have Java JDK installed. java --version

To use the Android KMM Wizard Template, first you need to install a KMM plugin and restart AS.

Clone the repository and try opening the starter project. Sync the dependencies:

Build and run the app.

If the emulators starts, then everything is fine.

If you run into a problem, it may be one of these:

If you have a Apple M1 Chip and the next command in terminal returns empty:

echo $LANG

Then in terminal:

open -e ~/.zshrc

And add this line to the opened file:

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8

After saving your .zshrc file, you must run next command:

source ~/.zshrc

If you’re running into Java JDK problem, do the following:

1. /usr/libexec/java_home -V

Your output should be something like:

18 (arm64) "Oracle Corporation" - "OpenJDK 18" …/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-18/Contents/Home 1.8.0_292 (x86_64) "AdoptOpenJDK" - "AdoptOpenJDK 8" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home

2. brew install openjdk@11

sudo ln -sfn /opt/homebrew/opt/openjdk@11/libexec/openjdk.jdk /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-11.jdk

3. /usr/libexec/java_home -V

Your output should be something like:

18 (arm64) "Oracle Corporation" - "OpenJDK 18" …/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/openjdk-18/Contents/Home 11.0.15 (arm64) "Homebrew" - "OpenJDK 11.0.15" /opt/homebrew/Cellar/openjdk@11/11.0.14.1/libexec/openjdk.jdk/Contents/Home 1.8.0_292 (x86_64) "AdoptOpenJDK" - "AdoptOpenJDK 8" /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/adoptopenjdk-8.jdk/Contents/Home

4. open ~/.zshrc

In zshrc add and save: export JAVA_HOME=$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11.0.15)

5. export JAVA_HOME='/usr/libexec/java_home -v 11.0.15\'
