First make sure you have Java installed on your machine. You'll need the JDK (Java Developer Kit).
JDK 6 Update 7 will work fine. You can try the Update 10 RC version (beta), but it's not really need for Android. http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp Next download a copy of Eclipse and install it. Download Eclipse IDE for Java Developers http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ Next download the Android SDK and Eclipse plugin Link to download plus instructions. http://code.google.com/android/intro/installing.html To install the Eclipse plugin, follow these steps... 1. Start Eclipse, then select *Help* > *Software Updates...*. 2. In the dialog that appears, click the *Available Software* tab. 3. Click *Add Site...* 4. Enter this as the Location: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/ Click *OK*. 5. Back in the Available Software view, you should see the plugin. Select the checkbox next to *Developer Tools* and click *Install...* 6. On the subsequent Install window, "Android Developer Tools", and "Android Editors" should both be checked. The Android Editors feature is optional, but recommended. If you choose to install it, you need the WST plugin mentioned earlier in this page. Click *Finish*. 7. Restart Eclipse. Hope that gets you going.
