How do I open a project in Android Studio?
That is, which file or folder in the workspace project folder? E.g. the equivalent of a .csproj
file for a C# project and so forth. With the Android Studio projects I don't see any file that looks anything like a project file.
Note: I am not asking specifically which file, name and all, as that differs for each project, unless the 'project file' keeps the same name all the time.

There are build.gradle
files. AndroidStudio auto-detects these, and any changes to them.
There is usually one main "build.gradle" for the entire project, and one for each module you have in your project. You usually need to edit the "build.gradle" in your module folder (for example, to add library dependencies). In a new project you usually have 1 module, called "app".
There are some other less important files, such as "project_name.iml", which you never need to edit. (At least I never needed to)
Whoa, I don't want to get into hand editing these files yet. I just wanted to know which one to double-click when opening a project, but it looks likebuild.gradle
is the one?
