Notes de l'éditeur
- This is for people with little to no programming experience, we start at the beginning and you’ll learn how to build simple Android apps in Kotlin!
- Before we dive into the content, I want to get to know you better and what brought you here. Please take out a piece of paper. Take a moment to think about your answers to these questions and write them down.
- Here are some the prerequisites that will be helpful. Having basic computer literacy and basic math skills is recommended. You’ll also need a computer and access to the internet to take the online course. [Mention WiFi instructions if necessary.] After this short presentation, we’ll all be working independently on the course. Use headphones to play the videos, so it doesn’t disrupt others around you. It’s also helpful if you have an Android device so you can test your app. A USB cable will be needed for connecting your phone to the computer. If you don’t have an Android device, don’t worry, you can still use your computer to emulate an Android device.
- You’ll be working through the Android Basics in Kotlin course. This is a free online training course developed by Google for people like yourself to learn how to build basic Android apps.
- The course is made up of units, and units are composed of pathways. First we’ll be focused on the first unit, which is shown here. It has made up of 4 pathways. In Session 1, you’ll work on the first 3 pathways: 1) Introduction to Kotlin, 2) Create your first app, and 3) Build a basic layout. In Session 2, you’ll work on the 4th pathway, which is a little longer. [Mention future sessions if your group will be meeting for longer.]
- You may be wondering, what is a pathway? It’s an ordered sequence of activities to learn a specific skill. An activity can be a video, hands-on coding tutorial (known as a codelab), an article, or quiz. You can see at least 4 activities in this first pathway. All these activities are meant to help you reach specific learning objectives by the end of this pathway.
- There’s a quiz at the end of each pathway to check your understanding of what you just learned. Here’s what a sample quiz looks like. There are no limits to the number of retries for a quiz. But if you get a question wrong, try to understand what the concept is (even if you need to look back at the source material), before answering again.
- After you pass the quiz, you earn a badge like this one!
- The badges you earn can be saved to your developer profile. When you are taking the course, be sure to sign in (in the top right corner) and create a developer profile if you haven’t already. It’s very quick to create. As you earn more badges, you can see them on your developer profile and favorite them, as shown here. [Read more on the Google developer profile]
- layout defines the structure for a user interface in your app, such as in an activity. All elements in the layout are built using a hierarchy of View and ViewGroup objects. A View usually draws something the user can see and interact with.
- Finding Views by ID taking references View binding lets you more easily write code that interacts with the UI elements in your app Logcat in Android Studio to troubleshoot problems like the app crashing. Object oriented concepts Screen and Navigation
- “lightweight threads”
- Now that you’re familiar with the learning platform and how the course looks, let’s dive into some important concepts that you’ll be learning about.
- In this course, you’ll be learning how to code in Kotlin. Kotlin is a programming language that you’ll use to build Android apps. Kotlin is a modern and popular programming language, known for helping developers be more productive. Kotlin allows you to be more concise when writing your code, and you can write safer code that’s less prone to errors. As a result of many great language features, Kotlin has quickly gained momentum in industry. It is reportedly one of the fastest growing programming languages, according to GitHub. Pathway 1 of the course is focused on helping you understand the basics of Kotlin. [Read about Android’s Kotlin-first approach]
- To make it easier for you to learn, you’ll be writing your code in the Kotlin Playground which you can access via the web browser. The site looks something like this. You can write your code in this window and hit the green arrow to run it. The result of your code (known as the output) will show up at the bottom of the window (where it says “Hello, world!”).
- Pathway 2 is where you create your first app! You will need to download and install Android Studio on your computer. This is the official tool that professional developers use for Android development. This is where you’ll be writing your Kotlin code and building your apps.
- In Android Studio, you can also use the Android Emulator, which can emulate various Android devices on your computer. The emulator allows you to run your app and it provides almost all capabilities that a real Android device would have. If you do have a physical device and want to use it, there are also instructions in Pathway 2 to get you setup. [Students can either use the emulator or a physical device to test their app, it’s up to personal preference.]
- Lastly, in Pathway 3, you’ll learn the basic concepts of customizing the user interface of a simple app. The user interface (also known as UI) of your app includes what the app looks like and how the user interacts with it.
- First, you can keep coming to Study Jams as we cover more topics to make you a full fledged Android developer. Second, you can continue learning on your own with the Android Basics in Kotlin course. Third, you can modify the apps we built together and learn by adding more features to them. You can use Google search or look at existing code samples and videos online for how to add additional features to your app. To stay connected, check out these additional resources, which professional developers use to stay up to date on Android. As you get into more advanced features, you will likely need to learn more programming concepts. You can check out the Learn Kotlin By Example resource for that. Thank you so much for being a part of Android Study Jams! Good luck on the beginning of your Android developer journey!
- Great job everyone on your progress! You can post photos or highlights from today’s session on social media using #AndroidStudyJams. [Include your own developer community and chapter hashtags (i.e. #developerstudentclubs #dsccmu)] We encourage you to share a screenshot of your birthday card app!
