How to Become an Andriod Developer in 1 week
Android Developer Do you know a recent study has claimed that Android devices comprise 50% of the mobile phone market? Android hit the market in 2007 and scored the fifth position after iOS, Blackberry, Windows, and Symbian. Since its launch, Android has successfully widened its user base with more than 500,000 plus Android devices are activated every day. The growth of Android has resulted in an increased demand for Android app developers who undergo rigorous android app development training to become successful developers. Android is completely technical and, therefore, it is not easy for, especially non-programmers to start with it upfront. No matter whether you are a programmer or a non-programmer, you have to undergo a training programme to become an Android app developer. This post introduces to the six simple steps that can help aspiring Android app developers achieve their end goals. Get your Tools- Java, Android SDK, etc. Android development is not machine specific and, therefore, you can do it on a PC, Linux, and Mac. Moreover, you do not need to invest in tools, as all Android app development tools come free. First, grab the latest version of Java SE from u201cthe Oracle websiteu201d. Next, go to the Android developeru2019s site and get the free software development kit or SDK. The SDK comprises so many command line tools, some of which are Androidu2019s emulator, Android code libraries, etc. The most preferred mobile development environment is Eclipse as developers can integrate it with the Android SDK easily. Java developers can download eclipse IDE from the eclipse website. This tool is way better in text editing and even offers a number of other features, for example, API documentation, syntax highlighting, and package organization to Android developers. Lastly, again move on to the Android developeru2019s site and get your Android development tools. The combination of ADT and Eclipse eases the whole process of Android application development. Learn the Technicalities of Java Though C is also used, most Android applications are also coded in java. Therefore, having a good hand in Java is highly important. u201cJavau2019s object-oriented programming model is the base of Android.u201d All of the program elements are separated to form small pieces that resemble real-world objects. If you have just begun with Android development and look forward to a comprehensive training program that can certify your skills in Android, check out the sites of Udemy, Simplilearn, etc. The training programme will encompass everything, from marketing to programming. Walkthrough the Android Application Lifecycle It does not mean if you have written web applications before, you can even write for mobile devices, however. Therefore, Android developers need to understand writing apps for mobile devices. Developers can code their applications in two ways. First, coding your application in such a way that it handles other applications and their priorities. Second, coding the application in a way that it does not manage other applications. Being an android app developer, you need to understand how your application responds to the receipt of a text message. Will your application disrupt a resource consuming animation in case of a phone rings in the middle of it? The lifecycle of android app development involves many steps that are highly critical to understand to deliver the best possible experience.
