This updated third edition will help you kick-start your Android development journey by showing you how to put the latest Kotlin libraries to use with continual focus on Jetpack Compose, Google’s powerful declarative UI framework.
You’ll learn the fundamentals of app development, which will enable you to use Android Studio. The chapters help you get to grips with Jetpack Compose to create your first screens, build apps to run them on virtual devices through guided exercises, and implement Jetpack Compose’s layout groups to make the most of lists, images, and maps. With Kotlin’s powerful networking and Coroutines libraries, you’ll fetch data in the background from a web service and manage displaying the data using Kotlin Flows. You’ll also familiarize yourself with testing, creating clean architecture, persisting data, and exploring the dependency injection pattern. The chapters show you how to publish your apps on the Google Play store. You'll work on realistic projects split up into bite-size exercises and activities, along with building apps to create quizzes, read news articles, check weather reports, store recipes, retrieve movie information as well as remind you where you parked your car.
By the end of this book, you'll have gained the skills and confidence to build your own creative Android apps using Kotlin.
