Usage share of web browsers

Internet surfers using PCS and laptops are turning to Google’s chrome browser quickly, according to recent statistics by StatCounter and Net Market Share.






StatCounter, published data that put Chrome as the world’s third most used browser in December 2011, after a growth spurt of around 12 percent from the same time in 2010.


StatCounter ranked IE first, with 39 percent, and Firefox was the second most preferred browser, used by 25 percent of the people who came online. Safari and Opera followed at 6 and 2 percent respectively. Interestingly, all the browsers on the list except Chrome have seen a steady decline from December 2010. 


Although statistics from Net Market Share state vastly different figures, they point in the same direction for all browsers. IE ranks first with 52 percent in December 2011 down from 59 percent in February of the same year, Firefox ranks second with 22 percent after a slide from 23 percent, and Chrome is at 19 percent while it was at 11 percent in February.


In any case, Chrome still has to grow its user base if it is to topple IE as the most preferred browser. According to statistics from Net Market Share, IE 8 comes first as the most preferred version of browsers used (28 percent), followed by Firefox and IE 9 having the same size of market share(12 percent). Chrome 15 owns 9 percent of the market, while IE6 and Chrome 16 both occupy fourth place at 7 percent.

Google re-branded the support Android libraries to AndroidX

It is important to note, you cannot mix AppCompat and Jetpack in the same project. You must convert everything to use Jetpack if you want to upgrade. The support library artifacts are being deprecated and all future development is going into AndroidX , so there's no avoiding this migration. Alan Viverette sums this up nicely: “There won’t be a 29.0.0, so Android Q APIs will only be in AndroidX” The stable release of 28.0.0 will be the final feature release packaged as android.support . All subsequent feature releases will only be made available as androidx-packaged artifacts. Below tips will give you a clearer transition path. The current version of AppCompat (v28.x) is exactly the same as AndroidX (v1.x). In fact, the AppCompat libraries are machine generated by changing maven coordinates and package names of the AndroidX codebase. For example, android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity is now androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity For a complete listi...

Android Pi migration(28 API support)

I am here to give some inputs on android PI migration. .  Apps must target at least API level 28 to ensure it is built on the latest APIs optimized for security and performance . From August 2019, new apps must target at least Android 9.0 (API level 28) . The objective here is to make sure that your existing app works as-is on Android 9. Because some platform changes might affect the way your app behaves, some adjustments might be necessary, but you do not need to use new APIs or change your targetSdkVersion. Android Service Problem On Oreo, startService() will throw IllegalStateException. This can be fixed by changing it to startForegroundService(). but it also stops the service immediately if you don’t bind to the Notification with Service.startForeground() within 5 seconds. For other background service we decided to use the WorkManager . Implementation: Since we have minSdkVersion 19, We migrated to workmanger for scheduled tasks and we still use JobInten...
