Sounds like you don’t have the Android SDK installed properly? Check out http://docs.elementscompiler.com/Fire/Setup/AndroidSDK/ for details.

Thanks for the reference link :blush:

To resolve this problem I followed below steps:

  1. Launched android studio installed on my mac
  2. From ‘File’ menu selected ‘Project Structure…’
  3. Copied the path which it was showing in SDK location
  4. Launched ‘Fire’
  5. Selected ‘Preferences’ from ‘Fire’ menu
  6. Pasted the copied path in ‘Android Folder’ text field

It worked :heart_eyes:
