Introducing the Compatibility Program
We're pleased to introduce the Android Compatibility Program. We've released
two tools -- the Compatibility Definition Document and the Compatibility Test
Suite -- to help device manufacturers build compatible devices.
Here you can find the information and source code you need to build an
Android-compatible device.
Android is an open-source software stack for mobile devices, and a
corresponding open-source project led by Google. We created Android in
response to our own experiences launching mobile apps. We wanted to make
sure that there was no central point of failure, so that no industry player
can restrict or control the innovations of any other. That's why we
created Android, and made its source code open.
If you're interested in contributing to the Android source code or helping
out with the open-source project, our Source pages have the information
you need.
If you're an organization building an Android device, you'll want to check out our
Compatibility pages to find out how to take advantage of the benefits of
compatibility.
