This page describes significant revisions to source.android.com. Please see the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) docs/source.android.com log for the complete list of changes to this site.
Welcome to a new source.android.com! The site has been overhauled to make it easier for you to navigate, search, and read its ever-growing set of information. Here is a summary of enhancements:
The entire site is wider, allowing you to view more content at once. Code samples and commands are more visible, and all text has been enlarged.
The new site renders more cleanly on handheld devices with a dedicated mobile view.

The former Devices tab has been renamed Porting, while the old Core Technologies subtab has been renamed Tuning and moved to the top of the site for better exposure.
With an ever-increasing focus on security in Android, the Security tab has been moved forward (next to Source) to reflect its importance.
Hardware Abstraction Layer and Trade Federation reference materials are available directly from a top-level Reference tab.
The AOSP code repository is always just a click away with the Go to Code button at the top right of every page.
In addition to the existing About, Community, and Legal footers, you can now find a complete list of links at the bottom of every page for building Android, connecting with the ecosystem, and getting help with the operating system's use.
