Android Studio is the official[4] integrated development environment (IDE) for Android platform development.

It was announced on May 16, 2013 at the Google I/O conference. Android Studio is freely available under the Apache License 2.0.[3]

Android Studio 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.[5] The first stable build was released in December 2014, starting from version 1.0.[6]

Based on JetBrains' IntelliJ IDEA software, Android Studio is designed specifically for Android development.[7] It is available for download on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux,[8][9] and replaced Eclipse Android Development Tools (ADT) as Google's primary IDE for native Android application development.

Gradle-based build support. Android-specific refactoring and quick fixes. Lint tools to catch performance, usability, version compatibility and other problems. ProGuard integration and app-signing capabilities. Template-based wizards to create common Android designs and components. A rich layout editor that allows users to drag-and-drop UI components, option to preview layouts on multiple screen configurations.[12] Support for building Android Wear apps Built-in support for Google Cloud Platform, enabling integration with Google Cloud Messaging and App Engine System requirements[edit] Version 2.x
