Answer 1

For Android development, you would be best off using Android Studio (preview 1.3 is now available).

Since Android Studio is based in Intellij, your "learning curve" should not be a problem.

For using "common resources", I assume you are referring to code ... and that should be in a repository (git / github / ...).
