Take a look on this screenshot for requirements
First you need to download sample project from here.
Copy candybar-sample-master.zip to your Android Studio Project folder, then extract it. After that you will see candybar-sample-master folder, rename it to your icon pack project name. You may want to delete candybar-sample-master.zip.
Open Android Studio, choose File - New - Import project or Import project (Eclipse ADT, Gradle, etc.). Choose your project folder, from example on image above my project name is MyIconPack.
Take a look at Project Navigation on left side of Android Studio, expand app -> expand java -> expand com.material.dashboard.candybar.sample.
On top side of Project Navigation, choose Show Options Menu, uncheck Compact Empty Middle Packages.
For example I want to change package name to com.daeva112.iconpack.kendra.free. Right click on com -> new -> package -> type daeva112. Right click on daeva112 -> new -> package -> type iconpack. Right click on iconpack -> new -> package -> type kendra. Right click on kendra -> new -> package -> type free. Now it should looks like image below.
Select activities, applications, licenses, and services package (ctrl + left click). Drag to free package, choose Refactor. Now it should looks like image below.
Check Compact Empty Middle Packages and delete com.material.dashboard.candybar.sample package.
Change package="com.material.dashboard.candybar.sample" to your package name, for example package="com.daeva112.iconpack.kendra.free". Still inside AndroidManifest.xml, scroll to bottom, take a look on image below, make sure B is same to A.
Change applicationId "com.material.dashboard.candybar.sample" to your package name, for example applicationId "com.daeva112.iconpack.kendra.free". Open Edit -> Find -> Replace in Path. Text to find import com.material.dashboard.candybar.sample.R;. Replace with import com.your.package.name.R;, example import com.daeva112.iconpack.kendra.free.R;. Click Find then choose All Files.
Sync Project with Gradle Files
DONE, you are ready to use CandyBar in your Icon Pack
