Inception of Android Development

The first part of this process is obviously is the downloading and installing the android Software development kit (SDK) . You can find it on the official website for the android developers  here.

This site provides with each and every detail regarding the download and install of the SDK so you need not worry about it. 

Now talking about something called as Android SDK Tools, which are a part of our android SDK. These are tools needed for the development of android applications.They get saved inside the android sdk's tools directory.

Revision of android SDK tools: the SDK tools are revised and are made available to the developers by the android developers community. So If you are downloading the SDK for the first time then you can directly download the latest version but If in case you already have the SDK downloaded you can update the SDK tools to the latest version/revision available.
As of now the latest revision is Revision 20.

Saying Hello to the Android World

It being my summer break  time I am at home trying my hands at new technology ... and as usual trying to learn something about which  I have least idea , yeah I am talking about android .development.

Last year I got a new android phone and ever since i got it i have been wondering how amazing it is .The amazing applications available at the Google play  or the android market make my heart go boom boom ...:)

Although I have a bit knowledge about Java I had to struggle to get it going, right at the beginning few days earlier when I started with the download and installation(credits to my slow bb), but then I realized it's not that difficult to do it ... in fact I would say it is pretty easy. And I think that I was lucky to have faced all those problems, as it made me search, explore and learn more . I remember once my professor at college said that "If you are lucky you would get many errors and problems learning new technology ... but if you learn it in-spite of those thing you learn it in true meaning "

Now, having created a few applications of my own I would be ore then happy to share my learning with you .So in the coming posts we would discuss all the steps we need to follow  to create a new android application .
