Does Android Studio supports AngularJS for Android UI design?

Question

I have a question about Android Studio: Does AS supports AngularJS code while designing XML files, e.g. for small animations or effects?

Answer 1

SUMMARY : NO

There is no way you can write Angular JS code while developing Android Native app. You can use Angular in a WebView (using js/html so), that's all.

Answer 2

AngularJS is a completely different technology than what is used in native Android apps. Native Android apps use Java and/or C for their code, which is compiled when you build the app. AngularJS is a framework for web development, running specifically on Javascript (a completely different technology than Java).

You can build apps without using native Java or C code, but there are tradeoffs. As noted in other answers, you can display webpage views as apps (using technologies like Cordova]), or use frameworks like React Native to write code in Javascript that then gets compiled to a native app. You could use AngluarJS in the webview instance, since it just displays a webpage, however not in something like React Native. I highly encourage you to check both of these (and other options) out, but keep in mind that they have their own limitations and tradeoffs – no one way is the "right" way to build an app.

In summary: No, AngularJS is a web technology, not a native app technology.
