Gradle Errors on starting first Android Studio Activity

Issue

I've merely just opened the Android Development Studio, following the tutorial on the main site, and am having the following "Gradle Build" errors preventing me from building my app:

Is anyone familiar with what causes this error? Looks like some kind of app compatibility issue, but the source code being pointed to is auto-generated by the IDE.

Thanks in advance!

Solution

Run the Android SDK manager from Android Studio. Tools -> Android -> SDK Manager -> Launch Standalon SDK Manager (for me at least). Then look at Android 6.0 (API 23) node in the tree. Install everything that's there. This sounds like you haven't run the Android SDK Manager to get your initial packages in.
