2.2.1. Android Developer Tools IDE

This chapter introduces the Android Developer Tools IDE. You’ll use it to create a new project (Section 2.3). As you’ll see, the IDE creates a default GUI that contains the text "Hello world!" You’ll then use the IDE’s Graphical Layout editor and Properties window to visually build a simple graphical user interface (GUI) consisting of text and two images (Section 2.5).
