How do I export an Android Studio project?

I just started using the Android Studio IDE and I already released and published a simple APK to Google Play store. The problem is that I did this at work. Now I downloaded the Android Studio at my home and I want to continue working and fixing bugs on my Project. I see that there is Import Project in the Android Studio home screen, but from where I export the project in order to import it? I tried Zipping my whole Project folder and import it but it didn't work very well.

What is the easiest way to create zip file of an Android project?

Once Android Studio selects the folder for you, it opens an Explorer, and selects a folder within your project folder. To create a zip you have to Right click it and select: “Send To/Compressed (zipped) folder”. With that, you get a “. zip” file that you can take with you, send over mail, share…

In the Android Studio go to File then Close Project. Then take the folder (in the workspace folder) of the project and copy it to a flash memory or whatever. Then when you get comfortable at home, copy this folder in the workspace folder you've already created, open the Android Studio and go to File then Open and import this project into your workspace.

The problem you have with this is that you're searching for the wrong term here, because in Android, exporting a project means compiling it to .apk file (not exporting the project). Import/Export is used for the .apk management, what you need is Open/Close project, the other thing is just copy/paste.
