7 Top amazing Programming Languages for Android App Development

Have your pick..!

Let’s try to understand the term Android, first of all, it’s an operating system which is developed by Google, belongs on an upgraded form of the Linux kernel and some other Open Source software and firstly android is create for touchscreen of tablet and smartphone. The production of Android devices increases with that result of Programming Languages for Android App development also get in the demand.

In the journey of A Baseband to Phone application all the steps are tightly bounded with native libraries, Application framework and Linux Kernel. As shown in the picture below.

Meanwhile android becoming a best-selling operating system over the world of a smartphone by 2011 and on the other hand, the tablets are following the path of the smartphone on since 2013. The amazing thing happens in 2017 the number of the monthly android active user is 2 billion. In June 2018 android become the largest installed base as compared to any other operating system.

Following Statista shows how smart phone user increasing in the period of 2014 to 2020. 

Have you ever use an Android device?

If you have a mobile device then which operating system are you using in it? More than 70% of mobile user says the name Android.

Then the next question must be how android reach everyone’s hand so fast? Android is the fastest growing operating system use in the mobile device and nowadays you must have seen android is also available in wearable devices. We can say the android app development is moving forward so fast.

Android app development is profitable in so many different industries as show below.

Let’s move on to the coding corner in different languages of Android App or Future Programming Languages for Android App Development

7 Top amazing Programming Languages

1. C/C++

Android & C/C++, we can include C/C++ code to our Android project by putting the code on cpp location on the drive in the developing project module. After the creating the project, code compile in native library witch Gradle (an open-source build automation system) can package along with APK.

The Android studio also supports C++ with the use of the Java Android Native Development Kit (NDK). NDK allows native coding, that can be useful for things like games.

We also create Android NDK Application with the help of Dynamic library using Java native library.

That means we implement c language source code header with javah-jni to build Android App classes which are the main component of An Android App.

2. C#

If you have doubt about C# for android app development let me tell you that C# in a great upgrading learning environment including more opportunity while using Xamarin because it creates cross-platform development tool which is able developers to develop iOS and Andriod apps in C# language.

C# language provides the alternative code on behalf of C and C++. It's supported by hardly some tool like unity and Xamarin, which are awesome for game development.

3. PhoneGap

PhoneGap apps are created using common technologies like CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. PhoneGap allows the developer easy to access the core options of iPhone/iPad, Google Android, Palm, BlackBerry, Symbian and more with its plugins.

Building interactive web pages you should know the knowledge about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript; all use with PhoneGap we can develop a more basic multi-platform application.

Here we can understand the Architecture how a PhoneGap application implemented.

Moreover, developer concern about the core mythology of an application and also developer is doing it without worrying about a complicated platform agreement which is organized by PhoneGap.

4. JAVA

Nowadays Java platform is a commonly used foundation for developing and delivering content on the web. Android Applications are developed using the Java language. Java more useful as compared to other programming language and James Gosling developed at sun microsystems now owned by Oracle.

Java is a fully object-oriented programming language. Java known as the official language for developing android apps and the major advantage is the Android studio. Android studio provides the powerful IDE for writing Android code. When it comes time to develop android, the first and most potions are java is the official language of android development, meaning that Google is the most supported for it.

5. Kotlin

Kotilin is known as an official language of make Android App since Google I/O 2017. Developing an application with kotlin is almost as the similar advantage like java. Meaningful and advance language which can be contemplated as the language of the future to create android app compared with Java. 

Kotlin is a newly introduced language for Android app development. And also known as a secondary official java language.

Now talk about the main activity (coding) of kotlin. firstly thanks to the kotlin Android Extensions plugin, one of the advantage is don’t need to make findViewById() call function of Main Activity reference.

6. BASIC

Do remember how C# strive the functions of C with the effort of visual BASIC? now it’s called BASIC(Beginners All-Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code) it’s amazingly agreeable to select BASIC as android app development with its fine and clear code.

BASIC provides A unique option is to analysis BASIC and also the B4Afrom Anywhere Software. This is an easy but also really powerful tool, though definitely much more opportunity.

With BASIC a unique way to implement the code and we can able to build a quite powerful app through this method alone.

Here is some BAISC primary activity windows screenshots.

BASIC4Android main windows with org object calling cu.GetOrganizatin(c.Id)screenshot.

7. Corona

Corona provides another perfect way to build Android apps which gives a specific amount of control and power. If you ever deliver a code in LUA you must have known that corona makes it easier.

Corona helps to develop an app that runs more than one platform and tool build on LUA; it massively simplifies the app-building process and allows you to call native libraries.

If we talk about Notepad++ codes run on the emulator and no need to compile it. Also, we can able to APK building and deploy is with the help of online tools.

1. Corona SDK

Corona Software Development Kit (SDK) developed by Corona Labs inc. in mid-2009, which allows software programmers to create the 2D mobile application for mobile game development.

2. PhoneGap

Phonegap is a commercial Adobe’s version of Cordova attaches analogous ecosystem. By using Phonegap we can create applications for platform- iPhone, Windows, and Android.

3. Realm

Realm replacement behalf of SQLite&Core Data. The realm is known to be an offline-first, reactive mobile experience the help of data synchronizes with another device.

4. ReactNative

A React Native app is a “mobile web app”, ”HTML5 app”, or a “Hybrid app”.ReactNative uses similar fundamental UI building sectors as common iOS and Android app.

5. Ionic

Ionic is concern about how an app looks &feel, its UI interactive of the app. We can say that its replacement for PhoneGap or the most popular JavaScript framework.

6. The AppBuilder

That’s another cross-platform tool to make, some edit and distribute mobile applications suited to the biggest devices on the smartphone market.

7. Sencha Touch

Sencha Touch is specially used in building data-intensive web applications and cross-platform web and mobile application. It’s the combination or merged with Ext JS.

Final Key Point:

Have your pick! I hope there are so many options to develop Android Apps (easily). There is a wide selection of the different option for developing Android apps form BASIC, JAVA &Kotlin, C/C++ to C#! you can create some simple PhoneGap apps with the use of HTML and CSS.

The perfect option to develop android app will depend on the basis of your objectives and discernment, the final choice, the best part of how you learn the code with fantastical experience.
