May 6, 2015 at 14:38The first 6 lectures of the online school of Android developers
A little over a month ago, together with Google, we launched an online school of Android developers and today we want to take intermediate results.
This month:
- 18,000 people registered at the school
- we covered the Russian-speaking Android community from Russia, the CIS, Europe, the USA, Canada, Singapore and China
- 6 lectures from JetBrains, Parallels, Kaspersky Lab, LinguaLeo and Tinkoff Bank were issued ( you can see them on the school's website ) The goal of LearnDroid was to raise interest in Android development and collect material from leading developers, the course was not intended to replace university education.
To make it easier for beginning developers to learn Android, we asked lecturers to make a list of the literature and articles that need to be read in order to become an Android development guru.
If you have any recommendations on literature, blogs and resources that are worth reading, throw them in the comments.
What's next?
Further students will have 8 more lectures on ContentProvider + Loader, LayoutInflater, UI controls, AdapterView, Service, BroadcastReceiver, Notifications, GooglePlay services, Android Animation Framework, Android Support Library, Fragment Framework and Material Design.
And at the end of the school there will be a final test, after passing which you can get a certificate from Google.
