Remote Android Jobs
Why Do Developers Choose Android?
Required Elements to Become an Android Developer
Why Do Developers Choose Android?
Android is the most popular mobile operating system in the world, with 2.7 billion active users. It currently holds more than 70% of the mobile market share and has been contributing to multiple devices like smart TVs, wearables, smartphones, tablets, and PCs.
It creates a huge demand for Android developers, which is why many job seekers flock to this domain and become Android developers.
But it’s not only the opportunities that excite developers. Android mobile development has its unique advantages such as-
- Easy to Learn
Numerous programming languages are being used for android development, such as Java, Kotlin, C++, and JavaScript. These are easy to learn and mostly well-known by even entry-level developers, which makes it easy to quickly adapt to android development. Moreover, the tools and frameworks used while building an Android solution are free and easy to get started with.
- Open-sourceÂ
The Android operating system is a Linux-based, open-source technology. Any developer can modify its code and create new features or functionalities. Here, the Linux used in Android is covered under the GPL, which means whenever changes are made to the source code, it must be made available when a binary is released in public. This gives freedom to developers by letting them easily adapt and make changes to the source codes.
- Various Job OpportunitiesÂ
With the growing Android market, job opportunities in this domain have increased tremendously. So if any developers want to pursue this flourishing domain, it is easy to get a job with attractive salaries. Android developers have different job designations that handle different tasks. Any developer who has expertise in Android development can qualify for various in-demand jobs such as Android Engineer, Android Developer, Android Architect, Mobile Application Developer, Mobile Architect, and Mobile Embedded Software Engineer.
Required Elements to Become an Android Developer
To become an Android developer, one must master a variety of skills, including coding and debugging, UI/UX design, API integration, databases, Android development tools, software structure maintenance through collaboration with the back-end teams, unit testing, etc. This leads to a pool of opportunities for developers across a range of industries.
- Programming and Debugging SkillsÂ
As an Android developer, you must be familiar with a variety of programming languages, including Java, Kotlin, C++, C#, JavaScript, and.NET. Moreover, the developer should keep up with the latest trends and versions to create cutting-edge solutions.
Debugging is another important factor that checks the code quality and errors. An Android developer must have the analytical and problem-solving mindset to find bugs and resolve them with greater efficiency.
- Proficiency in Android Frameworks and Tools
Having proficiency in using Android tools is necessary to become an Android developer. The framework encompasses different parts, so it may take time to gain mastery. However, by understanding the basics, developers can build scalable Android applications within a few days.
Android Studio, SDK, Android Jetpack, and Android UI are some of the best native Android app development tools developers can utilize to create a reliable Android solution.
- Cross-Platform Mobile Development Tools
Although native tools will give you the best-in-class development features, knowing about cross-platform mobile development tools can advance your career. Flutter, React Native, Xamarin, Apache Cordova, and Ionic are some of the best cross-platform tools that allow developers to create native-like Android applications. The advantage is that a developer can build and deploy applications on different platforms using the same codes, functionality, and UI library.
It gives a developer more exposure as he can build cross-platform apps using a single framework.
- UI Design
It is one of the crucial aspects of Android development. UI holds users longer on apps, so creating an intuitive UI should be an Android developer’s primary focus. The developers need to learn simple design principles like Frame, Linear, TextView, and EditText as well as some complex design principles like ListView, RecycleView, Dialogs, and Toast to implement UIs for a better user experience.
- API and Storage
APIs are the keys that allow data sharing between multiple servers, apps, and software. Hence, it is crucial for developers to understand how to integrate APIs in an Android application. Another important factor is storage. Android has three types of storage systems—Shared Preference, File System, and Database that a developer must work on to understand how the data flows internally in an app and how it can be transferred or retrieved through APIs.
