Introduction[edit | edit source]

To develop apps for Android devices, you need a set of tools that are included in the Android SDK. Once you've downloaded and installed the SDK, you can access these tools right from your Eclipse IDE (the recommended method), through the ADT plugin, or from the command line, or another IDE (eg: NetBeans).

The following picture shows the typical development workflow:

Development tools[edit | edit source]

In order to start development of your Android “Apps”, first of all you should download and install the Android SDK (http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html). Please follow the instructions reported on http://developer.android.com/sdk/installing.html in order to properly install the SDK. If you want to use Eclipse as IDE, you should also install the Android Development Tools (ADT) Plugin (please find here the related instructions: http://developer.android.com/sdk/eclipse-adt.html#installing).
