2015. Android Studio 2.0 features Instant Run



Google has introduced version 2.0 of its integrated development environment (IDE), Android Studio, specifically designed for creating applications for its mobile operating system. Notably, this new release boasts twice the speed of previous versions, representing a significant improvement. However, the feature that developers are likely to appreciate the most is the introduction of "Instant Run." This feature emulates the experience of writing HTML, where developers can modify their code, refresh their browser, and observe the changes immediately. Traditionally, this process takes considerably longer on mobile platforms, even with enhanced build speeds. With Instant Run, developers can build and deploy their apps once, whether on an emulator or a physical device. Subsequent code changes and deployments will only require a second or two before the updated changes are visible in the running application. This feature is compatible with all apps targeting Ice Cream Sandwich and later versions of Android.
