Personal Apps

Hello everyone, I am new here, I just wanted to ask something about making android apps.
I think I will be getting a new HTC Inspire 4g, and I am very excited to get it, I have never used android before.

Is it possible to just make personal android applications for free, not looking to make money or anything but just for personal use? If so, how? Links to tutorials or some webpages would be great. btw, I HAVE searched google and couldn't find anything.

I enjoy making programs with C/C++ on my computer and now I am about to get a smartphone I would love to know how to do the same on it.

That being asked, I have a secondary, and less important question:
Is there a way to get free android apps, similar to jailbreaking an iphone?

Thanks!

The best way in modern times to learn things is via YouTube.. just search for "android development"

yeah,agree with upstairs

Download the Android Sofware Developer Kit and get your feet wet.

Yeah, Google has plenty of documentation on it.

thank you!

I usually go on YouTube to see tutorials, you could also search on google and read if you prefer reading instead of watching how it's actually done.
