Well- Equipped With  XML

Just to break the tech chord, for my readers, lemme quote the XML in a familiar language, so basically XML is a markup language which lets the information to be transferred between devices, so it can be understood effortlessly. It is used to encode data for Internet-based applications.  As an Android app developer, you are required to use XML to create the Android app layout, and it allows you to write Java code to modify the app layout, even when the Android app is running.

Android SDK

With this Android developers can have the out-of-the-box support with full -featured IDE. For example, the code completion allows to create auto-complete suggestions as the users type and on the other hand, code debuggers the Android developers to identify the source of errors within the code. The Android Studio helps the developers in many ways, so their code would intact within the mobile app while giving high performance.

Android APIs

A mobile app is simply not just a source of code, which your users would enjoy, but to engage your users you need to integrate many other services like check calendar from a third party service. With Google APIs, developers can easily connect to their own APIs from their Android app. They can let the Google APIs to monitor the location of users, users can search for local places and many other exciting services can be a part of Android mobile app.

Data Base Storage

Your client company would always hold data which cannot be well-consumed in a mobile app platform, and the database has to be stored somewhere outside to interact with your mobile app, whenever need be. With Android platform, you store your mobile app data on cloud services like Firebase, which offers the simplest APIs to store data in the cloud and make it available across all types of Android devices. You need to be well-versed with the database management, so your app users can easily access data, when they are offline even. So as an Android developer, you need to grasp the full fledged knowledge about how databases work, and how to use it in your app.

 Material Design 

Google has introduced Material design as a comprehensive guide for visual, motion, and interaction design across Android platforms and devices, which lets a new style to be picked for an Android app, and it also helps in setting the color palette, and default animations for touch feedback and activity transitions. To cut the story short, it helps the developers to use various elements on the screen and use specific styles in the mobile app.
