i'm new to android studio so i'm not sure how to fix
I downloaded the sample code when I load into android studio it displays the following message
"the path \users\benjakuben\development\antroid-sdk does not refer to an anroid sdk" it tells me it will use the default path c:\program files\android-studio\sdk
verified the path exists
if i build the project it displays the following error
unsupportedmethodexception - failed to set up android module sin project stormy: unsupported method: baseartifact.getjavacompiletaskname(). the versio nof gradle you connect to does not support that method. to resolve th eprblem you can change/upgrade the targe versio of gradle you connect to. alternatively, you can ignore this exception and read other information from the model.
How can i get this to run?

Treehouse TeacherMost likely that project was built using an older version of gradle than you currently have. Does this video (start at about 2:20) solve the problem?

Treehouse TeacherHmm, if you go into the SDK manager do you have both the Android Support Repository and Android Support Library installed?
