The fast evolving Android Landscape
One thing you guys may have noticed is that the android landscape is changing rapidly, so fast that alot of developers are being left behind. Google as well as the open source community are releasing new APIs, libraries and frameworks at an amazing rate. Just keeping up is not for the faint hearted. Yet android developers are being searched for and paid well by companies all over the world. As a great android developer, you will be getting emails from companies as well as individual all over the world interested in your services. Mobile developers are in demand right now and this trend will continue for alongtime. However you have to stand out from the average and be upto date with your skills.
What we try to solve
Search over courses online, be it in udemy, youtube tutorials and tech blogs and you will realise one thing. It is difficult to find effective and practical enough courses. Most courses are either too theoretical or not a course at all but people pasting code snippets here and there. You don't learn so much from that. The over theoretical courses don't teach the innate problem solving capability required to create a project in the real world. Because in the real world you need to solve problems by coming up with amicable solutions that work well in the larger context and are maintenable. Needless to say, you will not learn anything from courses where the instructors don't follow an organized approach and keep jumping from here to here or explain what they are doing.
We try to solve the above problems. We will follow a project based approach. We come up with an idea, plan it and outline the challenges we will likely encounter. Then we start by creating our project in android studio, add dependencies, add resource files like fonts, images, themes, menus etc. Then we move to coding part. In the coding part we type our code step by step but fast so not boring. Yet as we type we explain. So you can see in the real world what we are doing and why we are doing it. This allows you to understand faster. The code we write is super high quality and well organized yet not bloated with repetitions. Thus you can pick up the code and modify for your purposes.
This Particular Course
Well this course is an android mvvm livedata room course. This means we will cover the following concepts in our projects
MVVM - Model View ViewModel
Room - Our data access layer
Lifecycle Components - LiveData and ViewModel. These allow us pass data across components and listen to them reactively yet in a life
Other practical concepts required in a project like performing CRUD etc.
Tell Us how we are doing
Please tell us how we are doing by taking a minute to assign us a rating and if possible why. This is how we gauge how our students perceive our methods and do even better.
Thanks in advance,
Oclemy.
