Android Studio

The IDE provides an integrated development environment tailored for Android application creation, built on the IntelliJ IDEA platform. It bundles tools for designing Jetpack Compose layouts, smart code editing with completion for Kotlin, Java, and C/C++, and a flexible build system that supports Android App Bundles. Developers can run and test apps on emulated devices or stream to physical Android hardware, allowing verification across screen sizes, OEM variations, and OS versions.

A built‑in AI assistant, Gemini, offers code generation, correction, and answers to Android‑specific questions, aiming to speed up coding tasks. The interface includes design inspection utilities for Compose animations and layout previews, as well as organized collections for managing project assets and preferences.

The software is open‑source and available free of charge, targeting Android developers from beginners to professionals who need a comprehensive, officially supported toolkit for building, testing, and debugging Android apps.
