Android Sdk For Mac Download

Android SDK for Mac is the official software development package for developers who want to create Android applications that can take full advantage from entire Android hardware and software ecosystem. With fully integrated software stack that enables seamless access to SDK tools, plugins and utilities, anyone can easily start producing your first Android applications. The core parts of Android SDK including Tools, Android Platform Tools, latest Android platform, and latest Android system image for emulator are already included in the package. However, according to your own requirements, you can change system images and create your application for any android OS version you require.
With Android SDK for macOS, programmers get immediate access to all the necessary tools for planning, building, testing, debugging and profiling apps for Android. Offline documentation is provided, but you can also contact large online community and the app developers for help, tutorials and hint that will make your project run more smoothly. Additionally, you also get access to copy of the Android platform source code, which can make your debugging much more easier.
Features and Highlights
SDK Tools
Contains tools for debugging and testing, plus other utilities that are required to develop an app. If you've just installed the SDK starter package, then you already have the latest version of this package. Make sure you keep this up to date.
SDK Platform-tools
Contains platform-dependent tools for developing and debugging your application. These tools support the latest features of the Android platform and are typically updated only when a new platform becomes available. These tools are always backward compatible with older platforms, but you must be sure that you have the latest version of these tools when you install a new SDK platform.
Documentation
An offline copy of the latest documentation for the Android platform APIs.
SDK Platform
There's one SDK Platform available for each version of Android. It includes an android.jar file with a fully compliant Android library. In order to build an Android app, you must specify an SDK platform as your build target.
System Images
Each platform version offers one or more different system images (such as for ARM and x86). The Android emulator requires a system image to operate. You should always test your app on the latest version of Android and using the emulator with the latest system image is a good way to do so.
