Installing the development environment for android is now easier then ever

 

Developing for android can a complicated task. Some developers including myself had a hard time starting with the development due to a somewhat complicated process which should be done prior to development – Installing the development enjoinment.

how we used to do it:

  1. Download the SDK
  2. Download the Eclipse
  3. Download the ADT – (Android development tools)
  4. Download the plugin for eclipse (by using https://dl.google.com/…)

now it’s easier:

go to https://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html , download the package and it will include all of the above. this is probably perfect for starting to develop for the Android without having to deal with the messy installation process.
