What is Android?
Android is an open-source software stack for mobile devices that include an operating system,
middle-ware and key applications. Android's mobile operating system is based on a modified
version of the Linux kernel. The Android Open Source Project (AOSP) is tasked with the
maintenance and further development of Android. Its open-source software stack consists of Java
applications running on a Java-based, object-oriented application framework on top of Java core
libraries running on a Dalvik virtual machine featuring JIT compilation.
It is an exciting time to be an Android developer. A big reason behind this excitement is the official
support that Google has extended to the programming language Kotlin. Kotlin gives developers the
features they asked for. It is a statically-typed programming language that can run on the Java
Virtual Machine. It is an open source, general purpose and pragmatic computer programming
language that combines both the object-oriented and functional programming features within it.
Android is now the most widely used operating system and statistics shows Android has 80%
market share in the smartphone industry. It has a large community of developers also developing
application programs ("apps") that extend the functionality of the devices. There are over 150,000
apps available for Android, and most of them are free.
Google took a wildly different approach with Android than Apple did with iOS. Any hardware
maker can use Android free of charge. Since Android is the product from Google, it already packed
with excellent Google services like Gmail, Google Now, and Google Maps etc. Most of the
customization has already been done for the manufacturers like Samsung and HTC etc., they are
able to flood the market with many cheap smartphones, which makes Android a highly popular
choice.
