In this edition of the Linux Week in Review, I will shine a high powered laser on the growing use of Fedora to create rich Android applications.

Android is a Linux-based platform, and it is clearly a phenomenon. The popular mobile operating system recently reached an amazing threshold of 900,000 user activations per day! In 2010, Mashable reported that there were 10,199 Android developers in a developer database, and that number has certainly grown since then. Unlike Apple’s IOS and Microsoft’s Windows Phone ecosystems, Android allows and encourages development on diverse operating systems such as GNU/Linux, Windows, and Mac. This has led to a great deal of interest in developing Android apps on GNU/Linux distros such as Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, and Mint.
