Apps Android Studio, should i use it?

[iboshido]

hey guys,

i want to create my on android apps. I heard about the platform "android studio" , just wanted to ask you if i should use it, since i dont know if there are good or many video tutorials. Or should i rather stay with "eclipse"?

Pretty sure Google heartily espouses the Android Studio:

http://developer.android.com/about/start.html​

They're putting their focus on Android Studio vs. updating the plug-in for Eclipse, so that's a good direction to take going forward.

Full disclosure: I'm still using Eclipse at the moment and have not yet switched over to Studio...but if you're starting out, I would recommend you start with Studio.

Cheers and I'm going to move your thread over to our Application Development area for you.

Yes, you should be able to export your project from Eclipse and import it into Studio.

You can indeed import your project from Eclipse to Android Studio. So go on @scary alien, you know it makes sense

There are a few things that don't import right, Like the Apache HTTP stuff. That will not work any more if you are using code from a older tutorial. That has been updated to HttpUrlConnection. So there a a few things you have to do to get the code to work.
