Get Ready for Android App Development

Being excited about mobile application and open source platform? Apple or Android? Personally I like both platforms but more lean to Android as I don't have any "expensive" Apple computer. Would be nice if I could get a sponsor. So Android App is my target for contributing to the community.

To get ready for your Android App development, you need the following stuff.
  1. JDK, any version since1.6.x or later and can be downloaded from here.
  2. Android SDK, and it can be downloaded from here.
  3. Eclipse IDE (recommended but not necessary), preferable to download Java EE Developer version
  4. Download and install Android Development Tools (ADT) plug-in for Eclipse.
  5. Add Android platforms to development environment.
    • From Eclipse, go to Window -> Android SDK and AVD Manager.
    • On Windows, double click the SDK Manager.exe file at the root fo the Android SDK directory.
    • On Mac or Linux, open a terminal and navigate to the tools/ directory in the Android SDK, then execute command: android
Now, you should be ready to get your hands wet on your first Android App development, Hello Word, for example. :)

For more information, you can always go to Android official home site for developers.
