Which operating system?

I have experience with Intellij and AndroidStudio but not VisualStudio.

Intellij - import Processing core library On MacOS it’s found in the app bundle at Contents/Java/core/library

Android Studio - copy processing-core.zip which on MacOS is at Documents/Processing/modes/AndroidMode. Change name to processing-core.jar.
