Android is built on familiar and proven technologies: Linux Operating System: For Example: Device drivers, networking (WiFi, Bluetooth), file system and memory management, process model. Open Source Libraries: For Example: WebKit, SQLite, OpenGL, FreeType, etc. Java Language and Middleware (Dalvik Virtual Machine) Android applications (system and user) are written in Java, using a rich set of APIs, similar to “Desktop Java 1.5
Android middleware (and example applications) are available to everyone in the public GIT repository. This is a GREAT way to understand the platform and learn how to create applications!
