ANDROID STUDIO

7. What is Android
Studio
Android Studio is the official Integrated
Development Environment (IDE) for Android
app development, based on IntelliJ IDEA
A flexible Gradle-based build system
A fast and feature-rich emulator
A unified environment where you can
develop for all Android devices
Apply Changes to push code and
resource changes to your running app
without restarting your app
Code templates and GitHub integration
to help you build common app features
and import sample code
Extensive testing tools and frameworks
Lint tools to catch performance,
usability, version compatibility, and other
problems
C++ and NDK support
Built-in support for Google Cloud
Platform, making it easy to integrate
Google Cloud Messaging and App Engine
android Studio offers even more features
that enhance your productivity when building
Android apps, such as

8. Why JAVA for
android
Java has an extensive set of libraries. It is
easy to take advantage of these libraries.
Android SDK has many standard Java
libraries included.
These provide functionalities for data
structure, math functions, graphics
implantation, and networking functions and
much more. These java libraries help us to do
everything else we could want. This way java
helps develop Android applications fast and
inefficient manner.
