Select a starter package from the table and download it to your development computer. To install the SDK, simply unpack the starter package to a safe location. It can be useful to add the location to your PATH as follow:
• On Linux, edit your ~/.bash_profile or ~/.bashrc file. Look for a line that sets the
PATH environment variable and add the full path to the tools/ directory to it. If you don't see a line setting the path, you can add one:
export PATH=${PATH}:<your_sdk_dir>/tools
• On a Mac OS X, look in your home directory for .bash_profile and proceed as for
Linux. You can create the .bash_profile if you haven't already set one up on your machine.
• On Windows, right-click on My Computer, and select Properties. Under the
Advanced tab, hit the Environment Variables button, and in the dialog that comes up, double-click on Path (under System Variables). Add the full path to the tools/ directory to the path.

Use Update Manager feature of your Eclipse installation to install the latest revision of ADT on your development computer.
1. Start Eclipse, then select Help > Install New Software.
3. In the Add Site dialog that appears, enter a name for the remote site (for example,
"Android Plugin") in the "Name" field. In the "Location" field, enter this URL:
https://dlssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
Note: If you have trouble acquiring the plugin, you can try using "http" in the URL, instead of "https" (https is preferred for security reasons).
Click OK.

to the list. Select the check box next to Developer Tools, which will automatically select the nested tools Android DDMS and Android Development Tools. Click Next.
