Throughout this chapter, we explored some of the more exotic ways in which Android Studio can assist the developer. Google's immense influence in the digital world has provided alternative technologies such as the Kotlin language and encouraged manufacturers to develop technologies that appeal to Android developers in a way that makes cutting-edge technology available to anyone with skills and ideas.
Android Studio is not alone in offering the opportunity to code in different languages or for different form factors, but Android Studio does make it simpler and easier for developers to learn new skills.
In the next chapter, we will take a look at one of the final development stages; testing. This will give us a great chance to explore one of Android Studio's most innovative and useful tools: the device monitor and profiler.
