Question

Is Apple macbook Air with M1 chip is good for coding (web development and Android studio/android development)
8gb Ram and 256gb SSD

Answer 1

My laptop has same memory and storage you mentioned. It's not a macbook though. I have tried android studio and emulator on both windows and ubuntu os and it works smooth without any lag.
Also see system requirement section at
https://developer.android.com/studio#64bit-libs
I'm pasting requirements for mac from that page :
Mac® OS X® 10.10 (Yosemite) or higher, up to 10.14 (macOS Mojave)
4 GB RAM minimum, 8 GB RAM recommended
2 GB of available disk space minimum,
4 GB Recommended (500 MB for IDE + 1.5 GB for Android SDK and emulator system image)
1280 x 800 minimum screen resolution
