Good day to all!

I write under android on Java in Eclipse + ADT. What other development environments should be used and why? I saw the review on Android Studio - everything seems to be cool, but is it worth going to it? Or is there something else?

PS In particular, in the above review, the claimed connection feature was pleased with the lines of code blocks. This is missing from Eclipse.

Closed due to the fact that it is necessary to reformulate the question so that it is possible to give an objectively correct answer to the party Nick Volynkin Jun 27 '16 at 13:13 .

The question gives rise to endless debates and discussions based not on knowledge, but on opinions. To get an answer, rephrase your question so that it can be given an unambiguously correct answer, or delete the question altogether. If the question can be reformulated according to the rules set out in the certificate , edit it .

  • I was once impressed with the review of Android Studio, but you can’t write anything other than Android applications on it, and I installed IDEA, the same thing in general. Eclipse is trivially buggy, one thing just killed me, in the XML editor the lines are dancing, you write in one line, and she swam, reinstallations did not help! - katso

I already answered about Eclipse vs IDEA .

Now for the development of android using Android Studio for it is sharpened for this case. There are many ready-made templates (Navigation Drawer, LoginActivity, Master / Detail Flow, etc.). Yes, it allows you to work with projects only for android. But it didn’t hurt me to put IDEA near me, it’s not that busy.

The only negative (after the transition, I do not consider as such) is that she constantly offers to transfer the project to Gradle.

I used AS from the very beginning as soon as it was submitted. Since then, it has become much more stable. I consider it the best IDE for Android development.
