Android studio 3.0.1 new project: AAPT2 Execution Exception

I created a new project in Android Studio 3.0.1 and during the build process I am getting aapt2 exceptions. Disabling aapt2 is an option but I want to understand why aapt2 is failing to build.

Let me know if any additional details are required

Gradle Console Output:

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

BUILD FAILED in 1s

Console output with --info flag:

The simple solution has to do with folder permissions. I discovered the answer after a lot of digging through the stacktrace output and learning more about the Java exception.

Move your Development/Project folder to a location that gives write accesss to android studio/gradle.
