Steps

1. Create a keystore

2. Set up Android SDK :

• Download the version 19 of Android using the Android SDK Manager (you only need to select the "SDK Platform" checkbox)
• Got to "C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platforms" (This path can be different depending on the installation, you can find it on the header of the Android SDK Manager)
• Copy the "android-19" directory and past it here : "BennuGD-Android-Template\utils\android-sdk\platforms"

If you want to use another version of Android, there are step by step instructions here

3. Create your application template

• Run create-new-app.bat
• Enter your studio/company name
• Enter your app name
• The script created a new directory named after your app's name. This is your app template

5. Create the APK

• Run export-android.bat
• Enter your KeyStore's name (without the extension)
