About Android

Android is a powerful and flexible operating system that powers billions of smartphones, tablets, wearables and even cars and TVs. It’s managed by Google through the Android Open Source Project (AOSP), with major releases each year that add features and security updates.

Unlike some competitors, Android is open and allows extensive customization by manufacturers, developers and enthusiasts. With AOSP you can build your own variant, sideload third-party apps and even run custom ROMs such as LineageOS.

For developers, Android provides a comprehensive SDK supporting Java, Kotlin, C++ and more, and a mature ecosystem of libraries and tools. If you enjoy flexibility combined with leading-edge mobile technology, Android is a powerful and fun platform to explore.
