Good alternatives to Android Studio?

[Daniel Fernandes]

I've been finding Android Studio pretty frustrating, mainly because of how often things change with it. It might just be because I'm still learning to use it and finding my way around doing stuff. But I'm just kinda annoyed that I don't really know what I'm doing and if I try to look up on the internet, I often find outdated information.

But before I spend more of my will power learning to make apps on this, is there a better alternative I should give a try? What do you write your apps on?

Before I started using Android Studio I tried Eclipse and Netbeans with plugins for android development but they out of date at this time

Until recently I would say you can't beat AS. But over the last few months it's started to get very unreliable on my Ubuntu system, with frequent crashes and other hangs requiring a process kill. Seems to have gone downhill in terms of quality
It works well most of the time, but I didn't used to get these annoying problems with it.

I get these crashes on my Ubuntu based system as well. Seems like I just started using it when it got bad. Which may be a bad reason for me to switch to something else (besides the fact that alternatives are usually outdated). Hopefully in the next few months they start fixing stuff and it gets better in quality soon.

I use Android Studio for Windows and I don't get crashes
