Android Apps Development
Working with Android just became easier. Just recently, Google introduced an integrated developer environment (IDE) whose main role is to ease development of Android apps. The launching took place in a Google I/O conference that was held in San Francisco a few two months ago. As a result Android developers have the option to use the Android development tools plug in for the Eclipse. However, Android studio is expected to be the first dedicated integrated developer environment for the mobile operating system. Android studio was built by Google on the basis of intellij idea: Java IDE. Apparently, intellij is more users friendly and simpler than eclipse giving it the power to help Android reach a wider section of the developers.

So what is in it for me and you with this recent Android development? Android studio will be in possession of numerous features that are especially designed to help in building android applications. This will make it possible for the development of applications that have a standard look as well as feel. What is more, it will be in a position to refactor to code so as to operate more efficiently. This includes a set of tools (Lint) used to catch version compatibility issues as well as potential bugs.

Business owners have a reason to smile too. The new android development works very well with gradle automated build system. Now, mobile application development shops will be able to use gradle in automating their processes that have to do with building, testing, publishing and deployment of Android applications. Additionally, they will be in a position to sync these activities with Maven or Ivy and other life-cycle management tool software.

During the conference a new single sign-on authentication technology was demonstrated known as cross-platform single sign- on. No one likes having to sign in into a service so many times especially on a mobile phone. Therefore, this is just what most of us were looking forward to. You can now share log in details among trusted services with the help of OAuth 2 protocol.
