Android app

Hi,

  1. I have a question regarding apps running in android . I want to create an android application that can be accessed via internet. The user can touch the icon. Then it opens and it checks for internet connection to get it run. What we call this type of applications. An android web app ?. Eg (Duolingo : a language learning app)
  2. For development of this kind of app , which layout should we follow ? (Webview layout ?)
  3. Is it possible to code html pages and use those for developing it ?

Thanks

I can explain more. I want to build an application. It will be an android application. User can install the application in mobile. The user can open the application only if he have the internet connected in this mobile device. For this kind of app , do we call android web application ? Which type of layout should I use to build this app ...Is it Webview layout ? or any other type of layout ? Is it possible to code html webpages and use that webpages to develop this kind of application in android ?

I hope now the question is clear .
