<p>Android Development Tools (ADT) is a development plugin for the Eclipse IDE. It
|
|
extends the capabilites of Eclipse to let you quickly set up new Android
|
|
projects, create an application UI, add components based on the Android
|
|
Framework API, debug your applications using the Android SDK tools, and even export
|
|
signed (or unsigned) APKs in order to distribute your application.</p>
