22. Introduction recipe(2.0.0)
• What is Android?
• Android is an operating system and programming platform developed by
Google for smartphones and other mobile devices(such as tablets). I
• t can run on many different devices from many different manufacturers.
• Android includes a software development kit for writing original code and
assembling software modules to create apps for Android users.
• It also provides a marketplace to distribute apps.
• All together,Android represents an ecosystem for mobile apps.
23. Introduction recipe(2.0.1)
• Why develop apps for Android?
• Apps are developed for a variety of reasons:
• addressing business requirements, building new services, creating
new businesses, and providing games and other types of content
for users
• Developers choose to develop for Android in order to reach the
majority of mobile device users.
24. Introduction recipe(2.0.2)
• Most popular platform for mobile apps:
• As the world's most popular mobile platform, Android powers
hundreds of millions of mobile devices in more than 190 countries
around the world.
• It has the largest installed base of any mobile platform and is still
growing fast.
• Every day another million users power up their Android devices for
the first time and start looking for apps, games, and other digital
content.
25. Introduction recipe(2.0.3)
• Best experience for app users:
• Android provides a touch-screen user interface (UI) for interacting with
apps.
• Android's user interface is mainly based on direct manipulation, using
touch gestures such as swiping, tapping and pinching to manipulate
on-screen objects.
• In addition to the keyboard, there’s a customizable virtual keyboard for
text input.
• Android can also support game controllers and full-size physical
keyboards connected by Bluetooth or USB.
• Android can also play multimedia content such as music, animation,
and video.
26. Introduction recipe(2.0.3)
• Android is designed to provide immediate response to user input.
Besides a fluid touch interface, the vibration capabilities of an Android
device can provide haptic feedback.
• Internal hardware such as accelerometers, gyroscopes and proximity
sensors, are used by many apps to respond to additional user actions.
• These sensors can detect rotation of the screen
• from portrait to landscape for a wider view or it can allow the user to
steer a virtual vehicle in a racing game by rotating the device as if it
were a steering wheel.
• Android devices are usually battery-powered,Android is designed to
manage processes to keep power consumption at a minimum,
providing longer battery use.
27. Introduction recipe(2.0.4)
• Easy to develop apps:
• Use the Android software development kit (SDK) to develop apps that take
advantage of the Android operating system and UI.
• To develop apps using the SDK, use the Java programming language for
developing the app and Extensible Markup Language (XML) files for describing
data resources.
• By writing the code in Java and creating a single app binary, you will have an app
that can run on both phone and tablet form factors.
• Google offers a full Java Integrated Development Environment (IDE) called
Android Studio, with advanced features for developing, debugging, and
packaging Android apps.
• Android Studio, help to develop on any available Android device, or create
virtual devices that emulate any hardware configuration.
28. Introduction recipe(2.0.4)
• Android provides a rich development architecture.You don’t need
to know much about the components of this architecture, but it is
useful to know what is available in the system for your app to use.
29. Introduction recipe(2.0.5)
• Many distribution options:
• You can distribute your Android app in many different ways:
email, website or an app marketplace such as Google Play.
• Google Play is a digital distribution service, operated and
developed by Google, that serves as the official appstore for
Android, allowing consumers to browse and download apps
developed with the Android SDK and published through Google.
30. Introduction recipe(2.0.6)
• The challenges of Android app development:
• While the Android platform provide rich functionality for app
development, there are still a number of challenges you need to
address, such as:
• Building for a multi-screen world
• Getting performance right
• Keeping your code and your users secure
• Remaining compatible with older platform versions
• Understanding the market and the user.

37. Activities Recipes(3.0)
• An activity represents a single screen in your app with an
interface the user can interact with.
• Your app is a collection of activities that you either create
yourself, or that you reuse from other apps.
• activities in your app work together to form a cohesive user
experience in your app, each one is independent of the others.
This enables your app to start activities in other apps, and other
apps can start your activities (if your app allows it).
39. Activities Recipes(3.0)
• one activity in an app is specified as the "main" activity, which is
presented to the user when launching the application for the first
time. Each activity can then start other activities in order to
perform different actions.
• Each time a new activity starts, the previous activity is stopped,
but the system preserves the activity in a stack (the "back
stack").When the user is done with the current activity and
presses the Back button, it is popped from the stack (and
destroyed) and the previous activity resumes.

app component in your app or in some other app.
2. Explicit Intent
• Explicit intents specify the receiving activity (or other component) by that activity's fully-qualified
class name. Use an explicit intent to start a component in your own app
