Have you used Intellij IDE or any of the related IDEs? I use it every day for various stacks and languages but have no experience with Xcode. I'm a little curious about how they compare.
Which is why Google took it and ran with it as Android Studio.
I should try the vanilla IntelliJ someday because my experience with Android Studio was abysmal (it seems to get better now, but it is too late as it has had me thoroughly disgusted from Android development)
Android development is generally disgusting. Its an over engineered mess that you have to devote your soul to learn.
