I heard this sentence a few days ago in a discussion around the hype for ChromeOS which will be able to run almost all Android Apps native in a few weeks.
While I think it is true for many usecases, we all know, that there are cloudbased IDE's around for us Software Developers.
But still,... when I think about Visual Studio, which runs, of course, in Windows, I write Windows-Software... well... in Windows.
So - what would be, if Google decided to Release Android Studio... for Android?
Would you use it?
Given you are one of the people who think about buying a Chromebook (I already own two Chromebooks and I love them!) and also given you do Android Development, would this be a great thing?
I honestly think so. Because I use my notebook and desktop PC only for Android development. They are never turned on for anything else. I do almost everything on my Chromebook, except software development. Ok, sometimes paint.net is a handy graphics editor - this is the second thing for what I sometimes use a desktop OS.
I would be very happy to have Android Studio in Android --- did you ever think about that?
Cheers, Mike

Would be good ... but VS with Xamarin on Android would be better!
You'd need a "proper" keyboard though - the onscreen thing is a PITA for coding. (I tried when I first got a tablet with one of the online C# compilers).
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Yes of course - I was talking about doing it on a Chromebook - which is at least a convertible with keyboard and hopefully a mouse - but almost everything can be done with the right keyboard shortcuts.

It'll never happen[^]
[edit] Oh! You mean actually on Android!
Why not. Plug a keyboard and a mouse into a tablet, and you've got a mini PC -- but very mini.
I don't know about you, but two large monitors is barely enough for me, when I'm coding.

i mean ON A CHROMEBOOK (seems the subject containing the word "android" is a bit misleading when i talk about a chromebook sorry for that!) which is in fact a notebook, 15 or 17" which is, what I am currently developing on.
In my job I use multiple monitors and it really helps, yes - but at home I am used to stick with a single display. it works. not as fancy and needs more alt-tabbing but it's ok.

Do chromebooks have VGA or HDMI ports?
If so, you can plug another monitor in. That'd be usable enough.

hdmi yes - i use my 60" TV with chromecast with it when I'm in the mood for some games

It's damn annoying - it's far too easy to either forget, or miss-key and hit it.
I don't think I've ever used it for it's "intended purpose" (but then I don't use the "Back" button that much either).
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Never mind that, when are they going to work on important things that people need, like the ability to disable the back button via asp.net code. It'll practically solve world hunger.

The thing is, it's not a "Back" key, and has never been a "backspace" key (the left arrow is the backspace key).
It is, and always has been the "Destructive Backspace" key, which goes back one space, "destroying" whatever is in that space.
"Destructive Backspace" is a bit much to write on a key, though.

My backspace key could have a multiline label...
My PrtSc and Pause buttons have Sys Rq and Break on the bottom side of the keys! But I really have no clue what that does. Modern keyboards don't have it I think, they're too flat to have any text there.

I've yet to find use for the scroll lock key.

I don't think it actually does anything (anymore).
A coworker uses the num lock key (it's on by default, he puts it off). Now that's annoying.
And caps lock should get a less prominent place. HOW OFTEN HAVE YOU TYPED CAPS INSTEAD OF TAB OR SHIFT WITHOUT NOTICING?
|
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately (for your argument), I've done that much less often than I've needed caps lock on.

So often I remap it to a SHIFT key

I never even knew that Backspace takes me back. I always click on the back button.

It works in most file explorers, too. I actually use it there, because there's nothing to destructively backspace.
I suppose on Linux, some knee-jerker has assigned rm -rf to it.

Always something to learn in software development

It is one of my favorite shortcut - I use it all the time. In the browser, in the win explorer to go one level up, especially in the "Save as " dialogs, in Total commander, etc...
I can't remember having ever clicked on a back button in a browser.
|
|
|
|
|
I build sites that correctly handle the back button, and save state going backward and forward. If I could do it, Google could.

I packed my bags and as I walked out the door she screamed
"I hope you die a slow and painful death!"
I replied "Oh so you want me to stay now do you?"
