You can ask for help, but you'll first need to setup development tools, etc before you can do anything.

One more thing, Would an SDK work? Or do I have to find an emulator.

I don't think you need either of those things, but I'm not sure I understand the question. 

If you're not working on this right now, it might make more sense to come back when you are working on it.
