Android Workshop

Spend a day learning how to develop native apps on the world's most popular smartphone platform. You'll get hands on experience developing a native Android app that will use most of the major components available in the framework.

The workshop will be taught using Android Studio with the new Gradle build system.

Use Android Activites to create the User Interface. Learn how to run background services. Create broadcast receivers to react to changes in the phones state. You'll even learn how to interact with the location services and display Google maps.

We'll take a deep dive into the details. You'll write code to interact with Android's built-in SQLite database. You'll add logging to your app and you'll even learn how to do unit testing in the Android environment.

Leave the class with hands-on skills and a working application that will be ready to publish to the Android Market.
