Android studio how to create a project with old SDKs?

Question

android studio

I put in the project settings

Studio gives the following:

The specified Android SDK Build Tools version (22.0.1) is ignored, as it is below the minimum supported version (28.0.3) for Android Gradle Plugin 3.6.3.
Android SDK Build Tools 28.0.3 will be used.

I'm more used to working with old SDKs. What ..... they shove me new ones ???

Answer 1

Set Target Compatibility to the version you need for compatibility. Build Tools and Compile Sdk should always be the latest, new versions not only add new features, but also fix old bugs.
Google generally does not allow applications with Compile Sdk less than 28 to the market.
If you still "need it", then, judging by the message: "as it is below the minimum supported version (28.0.3) for Android Gradle Plugin 3.6.3. " you have to downgrade the Gradle Plugin. I won't say which one, find out for yourself.
