title: Android Studio local.properties
body: <p>How I can create a <code>local.properties</code> that has the following format:</p>
  
  <pre><code>sdk.dir=C\:\\Users\\%username%\\AppData\\Local\\Android\\Sdk
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So that gradle builds can work with any computer that has the sdk in the default location without a need to add the sdk location name manually?</p>
  
  <p>The above example doesn't work...</p>
  
  <pre><code>The SDK directory 'C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Android\Sdk' does not exist.
  </code></pre>
