Error “package android.support.v7.app does not exist”

Question

I am new to android development, and I have been using the command line tools to create an android project. I followed all the instructions given in the tutorial at android

Answer 1

I'm a beginner but what I did for my code to work was to import androidx hence replacing the android.v7 then I erased the support.v7 line and my code worked. I'm sorry I couldn't explain in more technical terms but that's what worked for me. Actually the Java codes were codes I copied from an old tutorial hence the error encountered. Hope this helps.
