The foundation of Android development is built on Java – both a blessing and a curse for companies looking to create an Android app. Java is the one of the most popular languages, and is often one of the first taught to developers in school. What this
translates to is a sea of developers that all claim to understand and be proficient in Java. This volume makes it difficult to differentiate between merely competent and highly talented Android developers. The other complication, and what most companies don’t realize, is that the ability to write Java
applications often translates poorly to writing
Android apps.
These requirements don’t translate to traditional Java applications and the Android framework itself doesn’t allow for traditional application design. Even the UI framework is entirely specific to Android. The way Android is structured, it could be argued that you’re better off hiring someone with no Java experience, who will take the time to really learn the Android Framework, instead of an experienced Java developer who will try to force their experience onto the App.
