Google I/O is for developers, and the company didn’t pull out any stops to help improve the developer environment. One major addition is a new development tool, Android Studio, that’ll help streamline the app creation process for Android developers.
The new Android Studio is based on IntelliJ and is designed to make development faster and more productive. It’ll automate the process of adding support for services like Google Cloud messaging and will be a big area that Google will focus on in the future. Look for improvements in the development tool that’ll make it easier to get started coding for Android devices.
