Android Studio is the official[7] integrated development environment (IDE) for Google's Android operating system, built on JetBrainsIntelliJ IDEA software and designed specifically for Android development.[8] It is available for download on WindowsmacOS and Linux based operating systems.[9][10] It is a replacement for the Eclipse Android Development Tools (ADT) as the primary IDE for native Android application development.
Android Studio was announced on May 16, 2013 at the Google I/O conference. It was in early access preview stage starting from version 0.1 in May 2013, then entered beta stage starting from version 0.8 which was released in June 2014.[11] The first stable build was released in December 2014, starting from version 1.0.[12]
On May 7, 2019, Kotlin replaced Java as Google's preferred language for Android app development.[13] Java is still supported, as is C++.[14]
