On Linux, IntelliJ 2016.1 is still shipping with its own JRE (I don't know if they used to do this before) and that is very important for this release since they modified it so that the fonts don't look like shit anymore.
I wonder, is there any reason to use Android Studio over IntelliJ for android development?

- pjmlp 11y agoVS 2015 NDK support is still better than what Google is able to provide for their own OS.

- rpgmaker 11y agoThanks. That one would be a very good reason but, at least for now, not something I need. Moving from intelliJ to android studio should be relatively seamless, I assume.
