Why Use Java for Android App Development

Java is among the most prominent and popular programming languages, and it has proved over time to be the driving force of the information technology industry. As the main player in the business and enterprise world, Java has managed to keep a steady pace and continues to meet the requirements of the developers. With the recent move of Android to OpenJDK as well as the release of Java9, it is predicted that the relevance of the Java will keep on continuing to increase.

Mobile applications have managed to gain prominence in the daily lives of the people. These apps are aimed at the fulfillment of user requirements and business needs. Android apps based on Java have become the forefront of the app industry.

These major boons to the entire ecosystem have certainly created an influx of more Android developers, and a mobile application development company needs to assimilate these developers to meet the growing demand for apps based on Java.

Reasons You Should Know Why Java is Used for Android App Development

  1. Static typing

With the increased complexity of mobile apps and backends, it is quite essential to have a robust and comprehensive code base which is easier to maintain as well as refactoring. Static typing is the vital component in making sure the sanity of the developer throughout the project period, as it keeps on catching a significantly large number of bugs are the compilation time and also enables optimization.

It also forms the basis of second-to-none tooling and coding ecosystem of the Java. Hire Android app developer who can handle the complexity of the mobile apps built in Java taking Static typing into consideration.

  1. Runtime Management

The Java Virtual Machine’s garbage collector helps in reducing the complexity of the complete writing of memory safe applications. It also eliminates the error-prone work associated with the management of manual memory.

Concurrency remains to be an integral part of Java from its earliest days which provide thread-safe collections, easier to use multi-threading innovative APIs, and synchronization primitives. Reflection remains to be the ultimate piece of the runtime management which enables advanced concepts like aspect-oriented programming and dependency injection.

  1. Tooling

Regardless of the theoretical benefits of this language, it is the tooling around this particular language that actually makes or even breaks it. IDEs like IntelliJ, Eclipse, and Netbeans remain to be the gold standard by which different tools of various comparable platforms are duly measured. Refactoring, coding navigation, completion as well as templating make the writing as well as maintenance of the project effective.

Code hot-swapping, profiling, debugging, and unit testing allows the developers to find the right problems easily. The application server management, integration of source control and build as well as dependency management also covers the entire infrastructure required to deploy the project effectively. Best Android development company needs to factor in these vital aspects.

  1. Extended Community

When it comes to the size of the Java community, there are millions of Java developers across the world. This number results in the immense amount of online resources, books, training programs and forums where any Java developer can easily choose to improve his skills.

The hiring pool of best Java programmers is quite significant in comparison to other platforms With the ubiquity of Java on both the mobile and server side of the application, and the Java developers are well situated to move freely along the complete full stack easily.

  1. Third-Party Ecosystem

No matter what the problem you wish to solve, there is a certain guarantee that the Java community has already come up with a particular solution. If your backend requires big analytics, then you can choose from a plethora of solutions like Elasticsearch, Hadoop etc.

You don’t have to write your own analytics for the app effectively. If you need JSP serialization in both mobile app and backend, then add Gson and then share the POJOs as well as serialization logic across all of the platforms. Hire Android developer who knows the integration of these third-party services into your app.

  1. Alternative Languages

While Java remains to be the main language of the Java Virtual Machine and it keeps on constantly evolving to become more expressive, the architecture of the platform is quite welcoming to different alternative languages. Languages like Kotlin have seen a sudden increase in adoption, not just because of their features but their interoperability with the current Java ecosystem.

Conclusion

Java runs on the backend and on the Android app. With this particular portability, you can easily save development cost as well as resources by means of sharing a large section of the code between different platforms. All these reasons make Java the worthy candidate for Android app development for any best Android application development company.
