Description:
In the digital age, mobile apps are the primary way for businesses and individuals to connect with their audience. Android is the leading platform, with a 71% market share worldwide and over 2.87 billion apps. If you are an aspiring app developer, this book is the perfect place to start.
The book focuses on hands-on learning, taking you through the process of transforming your ideas into reality. Starting with the basics, you will learn how to set up Android Studio and master Kotlin fundamentals. You will then build on the Android Jetpack library to create a strong architectural foundation for your apps. Along the way, you will create six fully-functional apps, complete with UI and coding logic, all powered by Kotlin.
We start at the beginning, covering the basics you need to know. We will guide you through setting up the tools you will use, like Android Studio, and teach you about Kotlin, the language used for creating Android apps. By the end, you will have a solid foundation to build upon.
