So I finally got my Android tablet in the mail today, and was wondering if there's anyway to develop HTML5 Android apps for Android on an Android.

  • What are you seeking besides a browser and a text editor, both of which can be trivially found on the Play Store? – CommonsWare May 13 '13 at 23:24

Congratulation for the tablet.

There is a lot of applications on the google play :

HTML Builder / Web Server

KSWEB: server + PHP + MySQL

But i think that if you are serious about making HTML5 apps, you should buy a computer.

  • When I make HTML5 apps for Android on the comp my mom and I share I use PhoneGap and Eclipse IDE for the compiling. I take it there currently isnt an alternative for android users to develop and do it just on an Android. My best solution is to stick with developing html5 web apps? – Michael Schwartz May 13 '13 at 23:58

    @mikethedj4: AIDE allows you to build native Java apps on the device, but your question was for HTML5 apps. – CommonsWare May 14 '13 at 00:03

There is no 'app builder' type app for Android as far as I am aware. However, like others have mentioned, you can certainly download some tools to help your development along. Unfortunately, none of which allow you to compile an app as far as I know. You can easily browse, edit, and upload (FTP) HTML/CSS/JS on your Android with tools like ES File Explorer and DroidEdit though.

    Following up on this there is an app called AIDE - Android IDE - Java, C++ which allows Android app development on an Android device. Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aide.ui&hl=en – Robert Waddell Jun 01 '13 at 22:58
