Creating your mobile app for Android and iPhone for free is easier than ever. iBuildApp app maker software allows building apps in a matter of minutes, no coding required! Just pick a template, change anything you want, add your images, videos, text and more to get mobile instantly.
As an app developer, you don't need to worry about whether a device is Android compatible, because only devices that are Android compatible include Google Play Store. So you can rest assured that users who install your app from Google Play Store are using an Android compatible device.
Android software development is the process by which applications are created for devices running the Android operating system. Google states that "Android apps can be written using Kotlin, Java, and C++ languages" using the Android software development kit (SDK), while using other languages is also possible.
You could look at the Scripting Layer for Android. It allows you to write apps using pretty much the full capabilities of your device in a wide variety of languages.
The only thing is, these aren't full apps, so you couldn't distribute them using market, for example. But if you're looking to take full advantage of your netbook, it will let you hack some fun stuff together.
