For Android development, if you run into any errors with the Android NDK, you should ensure that it is [installed](https://developer.android.com/studio/projects/install-ndk#default-version). You may also need to add the Android tools [to your PATH](https://stackoverflow.com/a/29083170).

You can see the [advanced building page](../advanced/building) for more information if you need it.
