I agree about Object-C being a pain, disagree about making Android apps look good. Perhaps it's a trade off. The iPhone has Interface Builder, we get the shit

I agree about Object-C being a pain, disagree about making Android apps look good.
Perhaps it's a trade off. The iPhone has Interface Builder, we get the shitty eclipse builder (plus the ability to use straight xml, or do it all programmatically).
We get to use Java, but we have to use eclipse. the iphone has to use objective c, but they get xcode.
- biafra 17y agoI disagree about Objective-C being a pain. When I was doing osx development. Desktop and iPhone, I liked it. You do not have to use Eclipse at all! I use maven and the community edition of IntelliJ IDEA. But I could also use Netbeans. Or a simple text editor. For the GUI you can use DroidDraw. And you do not have to use Java. You can use Scala. Although I would recommend using Java until you are familiar with the APIs and concepts.
