Android development is the process of creating applications for devices running the Android operating system, such as smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, and wearables. Android apps are primarily developed using Java or Kotlin with the help of the Android SDK (Software Development Kit) and tools like Android Studio, the official IDE by Google.
Android is an open-source platform based on the Linux kernel and maintained by Google. It supports a vast ecosystem and provides developers with access to device features like GPS, camera, storage, sensors, and more through various APIs.
Android applications are built using components such as:
Activities – represent screens or UI elements.
Fragments – reusable parts of the UI.
Services – run background tasks.
Broadcast Receivers – respond to system-wide events.
Content Providers – manage app data sharing.
Android apps are packaged into .apk files and distributed via platforms like the Google Play Store.
Android development offers vast career opportunities due to the widespread use of Android devices globally.
