Hi!

I would like to develop an Android app and I would like to know which are the best tools and languages to start with, at the present moment.

I've some knowledge of Java, and some time ago I have done some basic things with Android Studio but since this area is changing so fast and since there is a myriad of technologies/languages involved in app development (Node.js, Javascript, Angular, React, and so on) I'm somehow lost on where to start?

Can someone tell me what to look first?

Thank you.

Only if you want to keep all of the application’s business logic on the server and have your mobile application simply act as the user interface, you will use those JavaScript frameworks / languages in order to develop your apps.

Download size < 0.15 MB. But also accurate enough, ad-free & free.

Express.js is the most popular and flexible Node.Js framework. So, you may get started from Express.js if you want to study developing mobile apps with Node.js.

I am not a top tier Android developer, but All i know from my work experience is the Kotlin is what you should start with. It's a Java based language used for making Android apps, ( You Might know it ).

Also, You can check out Node.js and Angular to have additional command over the languages. Also, try out Python.

For development for Android only - Java + (OR) Kotlin. For cross-platform development - C ++
