ANDROID APP SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT


Welcome Developers! If you are new to the Android SDK, please read the blog below for more information about the Android SDK and how to install the Android SDK. A software development kit  is typically a set of software development tools that allows for the creation of applications for a certain software package, software framework, hardware platform, computer system, video game console, operating system, or similar platform.
It may be something as simple as an application programming interface (API) in the form of some files to interface to a particular programming language or include sophisticated hardware to communicate with a certain embedded system. Common tools include debugging aids and other utilities often presented in an integrated development environment (IDE). SDKs also frequently include sample code and supporting technical notes or other supporting documentation to help clarify points from the primary reference material.
Android is a software stack for mobile devices that includes an operating system, middleware, and key applications. The Android SDK provides the tools and libraries necessary to begin developing applications that run on Android-powered devices.
ABCO Technology offers the Android Training Program for developers to program and develop Apps for the Android platform.  The course “Develop Mobile Applications for Android” provides students the tools to develop applications in the classroom for a production environment using the Android SDK.
If you're already using the Android SDK, you should update to the latest tools or platform using the Android SDK and AVD Manager, rather than downloading a new SDK starter package. \
