How to use a GitHub project in Android Studio

Question

I know there are already similar question but I still could not find a way to do this. I want to use this github project in a new android app. Could anyone elaborate how to do that ?

First you need to clone the project to your desired folder as follows "git clone github.com/gitgrimbo/android-sliding-menu-demo.git" A clone is a copy of a repository that lives on your computer instead of on a website's server somewhere, or the act of making that copy. — pooja

It's easy. For example, you want to add the library which is given below.

1)just take compile link --> compile 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.2'

2)add it in app level gradle

dependencies {
compile 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.2'
}

3)sync project Now u can use easily this github library.

EDIT:

In the latest version of Android Studio implementation must be used instead of compile

So,

compile 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.2'

becomes,

implementation 'com.intuit.sdp:sdp-android:1.0.2'
