Start from zero programming knowledge and build your own Android apps from scratch. Learn the basics of Java and essential Android development skills to create a basic app.
Install Android Studio and the Java Development Kit to start building Android apps, then follow the setup wizard and hardware recommendations for a smooth development environment.
Start a new Android Studio project and select an empty activity using Java. Target an Android version to reach most devices, and explore the main activity, manifest, and layout files.
Learn how to declare and use variables in Java, including int and double types, strings, and basic arithmetic, with sample prints.
Learn loops in Java, covering for and while loops with their syntax—initialization, condition, and final statement—plus a three-time example, the ++ operator, and notes on comments using backslashes.
Learn how functions reuse code, accept arguments like integers and strings, and return values to streamline Android app development; call functions from main and display results.
Master control flow by using if and else statements to run code on true or false conditions, compare variables with operators, and use double equals for equality.
Explore how objects and classes model real world items, like a dog class, with state and behavior defined by variables and methods, and learn constructors, object creation, and Java interactions.
Preview a simple timer app built in Android app development for beginners, where a button increments the timer by one second, with step-by-step guidance through the app’s components.
learn to create a new Android Studio project, set a basic activity, reference a text view by id, edit text in onCreate, and display short toast messages to users.
Position UI elements with a relative layout and center text, then configure a floating action button with a play icon and 50 by 50 dp to show a toast.
Set up an Android timer with a handler and runnable, use a global variable for the counter, and update a text field every second by casting the count to string.
Preview how to build a grocery list app by adding items through a new activity, using a plus button, and finalizing entries in the main view.
Create a new Android project, design a main screen with a floating action button and list, set full-screen constraints, and add a second activity with back navigation.
Learn to save data permanently in android apps using shared preferences and putString for key-value pairs in a private context. Use intents to switch between activities with the correct context.
Build an android notes app by adding items to a list with an array adapter, editing via intents, and persisting data with shared preferences.
In this course, you'll learn the fundamentals of Android Development and programming. I will walk you through downloading the necessary software (Android Studio and the Java Development Kit), teach you the fundamentals of programming, and at the end we will build a full notes app. The app will be intuitively designed and optimized for user experience.
