Android remains the most prominent mobile operating system, and programmers must keep up with its advances to develop popular apps
The number of Android devices worldwide exceeds 3 billion, generating rapid growth in the mobile application development industry. However, finding experts who have mastered the latest programming methods for this operating system is no easy task. For this reason, TECH’s Professional Master’s Degree Android Application Development guarantees an immediate update of knowledge in this area.
Thus, the widespread use of cell phones leads companies to look to applications as a direct way to serve their customers, marketing and improving their reputation. In this sense, it is essential to master all stages of the development, deployment and monetization life cycle of applications.
This is why the IT specialist in this area needs to master new development tools, offering his customers or employers the best solutions in terms of usability and speed. In this way, he will be able to adapt to the constant changes existing in this field of programming.
Optimization of Android tools
One of the keys that distinguishes a programmer is his handling of the tools for the development of applications. In this regard, existing Android tools are designed to help them create quality apps and supply technical support for the entire lifecycle.
In this context, Android Studio is the official IDE, offering a complete set of development tools such as code editor, debugger, virtual device emulator and APK generator. It is widely used for its robustness and functionality. Whereas, Android SDK encompasses supplies the libraries, debugging tools and virtual device emulators.
On the other hand, the Android system checks itself and supplies detailed real-time information about the performance and resource usage of the device. It allows you to monitor the consumption of CPU, memory, network usage and other system resources while an application is running, supplying valuable information about its performance. In addition, the Android Asset Packaging Tool (AAPT) is the compilation tool for packaging and processing images, XML and layout files so that they are compatible and can be used in the final application
Latest advances in application development
The rise of this technology has led to continuous evolution. An example of this is Android Jetpack, which consists of a complete collection of libraries and tools, which offer ready-to-use components and architectures in areas such as lifecycle management, data persistence, user interface, connectivity, allowing developers to create high quality applications.
While in the case of programming language we come across Kotlin, which has become the preferred choice for programmers. With a concise and readable syntax, it avoids common errors and provides advanced features, such as interoperability with Java.
Also, new architectures such as MVVM (Model-View-View Model) and Clean Architecture have appeared, which promote a clear separation of responsibilities and ease the maintenance and scalability of applications. But Android Instant Apps allow users to run applications without installing them on their devices.
TECH Technological University
TECH is an institution fully committed to offering a first-class education to its students, choosing the contents that will boost their professional development. Thus, it bases its philosophy on technology and the Relearning method, which allows the acquisition of skills and knowledge with a better result than any other traditional methodology.
Another of its strengths is its 99% employability rate among graduates, according to the indications of the consulting firm KPMG, which currently positions it as one of the most professionally oriented academic institutions.
Likewise, its determined trajectory towards the digital world has earned it the Google Partner Premier 2023 distinction and the status of official online university of the NBA. In addition to all this, it has received recognition from its own student body. According to the rating platform, Trustpilot is the best rated university in the world by its students after more than 1,000 opinions.
