I just updated Android Studio Arctic Fox and I noticed that there are different versions:
Android Studio arctic fox
Android Studio Electric Eel Canary
Android Studio Dolphin
Android Studio Bumblebee
I’m a little lost. so I’d like to know if:
1-their installations are independent of other
2-What are the differences between each of them and their usefulness ( when used one versus another ).
3-also if there is a better ( forward ) than another ?
thank you.
To answer your latter two questions first, instead of using version numbers, they are just version names. They are ordered alphabetically.
So sequentially:
The difference: newer versions have the newest features and security updates. They are otherwise the same and serve the same purpose.
The canary version represent a version in active development, usually released early and are prone to bugs and crashes.
The current stable release, as of this writing, is Android Studio Chipmunk.
Not necessarily. As newer versions are released, they are installed on top of the older version. However, if you install a beta or canary version, they are usually installed independently alongside other installations.
