Rogers (2009), mentioned that this book provides the concepts and code that is needed to start building smartphone applications with Android programming environment. Android Application Development introduces the environment including the operating system and SDK, and provides working examples with thorough explanations to demonstrate Android’s architectural features and APIs. Whether developers want a commercial application for smartphones or a mobile mash up for personal use, Android Application Development shows how to design, build and test applications that are innovative portable and profitable. Developers will learn the tools that write programs using Eclipse, run application on the Android emulator, and carry out debugging, tracing, and profiling.
Greg R. Jacobs (2010), states that Android is the prime OS for developing applications in today for many reasons. The main reasons being that it is Open Source and Intuitive. In addition it uses Java for development, which is quite an easy language to get used to and develop in. This being said, a lot of you have great ideas for Android applications or applications in general but don’t know where to start. This series will take you behind the scenes and introduce you to the software that will be your best friend while developing for android. On this journey we will start with a “Hello World” and move on from there to create a database driven application with a touch and scroll interface. The final result will look something like this:
Working with tools to develop Android applications will be your greatest asset as you will come to realize early on. All of the tools I use will be listed to make development speedy and efficient while still looking good along the way. At best you will need to acquire
