What is Android development?

Android development refers to the process of creating software applications that run on the Android operating system. Android system is widely used on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, as well as on televisions and in-car entertainment systems. Android applications are typically developed in Java programming language, using the Android Software Development Kit (SDK). The SDK includes tools and APIs that allow developers to create, test, and debug their applications. The end result is an APK file that can be installed on an Android device and run like any other app. Android development is an exciting field that offers many opportunities for creativity and innovation, as well as the potential for reaching a large and diverse audience.

What tools do I need to start Android development?

To start Android development, you will need the following tools:

Android Studio. Android Studio is the official Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Android development. It is free, easy to use, and comes with a set of tools and features specifically designed for Android development, including a code editor, a visual layout editor, and a built-in emulator.
Java Development Kit (JDK). Java is the primary programming language used for Android development, and you will need the Java Development Kit (JDK) in order to write and run Java code on your computer.
Android SDK. The Android Software Development Kit (SDK) is a collection of tools, libraries, and documentation that you will use to build and test your Android applications. You will need to install the Android SDK as part of the Android Studio installation process.
A device or emulator. You will need either a physical Android device or an emulator to test your application on. An emulator is a virtual device that runs on your computer and behaves like an actual Android device, allowing you to test your app without having to use a physical device.

In addition to these tools, you may also find it useful to have a basic understanding of Java or another programming language, as well as a general understanding of the basics of software development, such as object-oriented programming and app architecture.

There are several programming languages that can be used for developing Android applications, including:

Java. Java is the official language for Android development, and is the most commonly used language among Android developers. Java is a class-based, object-oriented language that is known for its portability, simplicity, and readability.

Kotlin. Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language that is concise, expressive, and safe. It was officially supported by Google as a first-class language for Android development in 2017, and has since become increasingly popular among Android developers due to its improved syntax and advanced features.

C++. Android applications can be written in C++ using the Android Native Development Kit (NDK). The NDK provides a set of tools and APIs that allow developers to write high-performance, low-level code for Android, such as games and other graphics-intensive applications.

Python. Python can be used for developing Android applications using the Kivy framework, which is an open-source, cross-platform framework for building mobile apps. Python is a popular language for its simplicity, readability, and versatility, making it a good choice for developing both desktop and mobile applications.

Note that while these are the most commonly used programming languages for Android development, other languages such as Scala, Ruby, and even HTML, CSS, and JavaScript can be used for developing Android applications as well.

Why do you need a mobile app?

In most industries, the competition to offer the best product to a wider audience never stops. The digital environment is rapidly changing and usually, the one who has established the most effective communication channels with the users wins. This is why you need a well-created, user-friendly mobile app that will help you build your continuous presence. It enables you to be visible and accessible to customers all the time, thus, it builds the association between a user and your company.

A mobile application is a great way to deliver information more quickly (e.g. push notifications) – research shows that customers pay more attention to notifications from their apps than the company’s website or even mailbox. A mobile app also allows you to engage them more with digitized loyalty programs. Finally, a company with a mobile app is more likely to expand the target audience, as they are able to provide their service 24/7.

As approximately 75% of the world’s smartphone market is Android, the chance to reach new customers thanks to an Android app is continuously increasing. At Liki, we develop mobile solutions that work flawlessly on any mobile device.
