build-tools

This question already has an answer here: Android Studio keeps refusing to resolve com.android.support:appcompat-v7:29.0.1 4 answers I want to try Intellij Platform for android development but even after fresh it shows gradle failures. Please help. I have tried tweaking the line implementation 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:29.+' to some other versions but to no avail.

I don't want the editor. Just msbuild. There is no way to unselect the editor. Is there a way I can install the latest version of msbuild without also
