What are the minimum packages to choose for Android SDK manager for ionic development?

Question

When I open the Android SDK manager, there are so many checkboxes. Checking all of them will take up too much hard disk space. What are the minimum packages to choose for Android SDK manager to save disk space?

I would like to use ionic framework to develop for Android phones. My phone is based on Android 5.1

The current android minimum is 4.4 anything lower doesn't use the chrome browser unless you use crosswalk that add chromium support to early versions. I'd checkout https://blog.nraboy.com/2014/10/use-crosswalk-ionic-framework-android-apps/ to learn more and how to install it. Hope that helps
