For installing android studio haxm I see there is a need of hardware visualization but my computer does not support hardware visualization. Do I have any way to install haxm or any alternative platform to code for android ?

Virtualization, from virtual (machine).



When you want to test run an Android app, you can either use an Android device connected to your computer (which is the recommended way), or use the Android emulator that comes with the SDK.



The emulator is agonizingly slow, and the only way to make it faster is to use an Intel CPU that supports virtualization, install haxm and set up the virtual android device to use an Intel image (instead of an ARM one). That way the emulator can use hardware accelerated virtualization, which is significantly faster than emulating the entire Android system with just software.



So if you do have an Android phone or tablet, you don't need to worry about virtualization or haxm. Just activate its developer mode and connect it, and Android Studio will offer you to run the app on it.



(To be clear: Android studio does not _require_ hardware virtualization, it will run perfectly fine without it.)

If you learned that Apple Google & Microsoft are NOT the only computer operating systems in the world. There is another Free open source operating systems thats available. The same operating system that Google Android & Chromium is developed from, which is Linux, which has virtual machine built into the operating system Check out the web links be low. First watch the Youtube video about this operating system then you will see and understand why.

Then check out the website of the companies that develop it, then where you download it from

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
