Android Development

Android Development is the process of creating applications for Android-powered devices, utilizing languages like Java and Kotlin. Coursera's Android Development catalogue guides you through the creation of high-quality, user-friendly applications for one of the most widely used mobile operating systems. You'll learn to design robust and responsive user interfaces, implement data storage and retrieval strategies, understand the Android activity lifecycle, and handle asynchronous tasks and threads. This skillset will arm you with the knowledge to leverage Android Studio, Google's official Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for Android apps, and navigate the ins and outs of Android SDK, thus enabling you to build and deploy your own applications on the Google Play Store.
