How do I add a library project to Android Studio?

Basically, you can include your JAR files in three different ways. The last one is remote library that is using https://bintray.com/ jcenter online repository.

But, if it is an internet address like this, they are remote libraries (bintray.com jcenter part) and they will be used remotely:

I hope it helps.
