Pros

Cons

- Unlike most single-video tutorials, this has a great table of contents with timestamps that allows users to jump around as they need.
- One of the best introductory overviews to Android development on the internet (the first 18 minutes of the video).
- Strong focus on best practices to help new developers avoid devastating habits.
- Tutorial crams a lot of tools and resources into a single video. Would probably be easier to understand if the information was more segmented in a video series.
- Despite the name, overall Kotlin emphasis is minimal.
- Course by itself is not enough. Students who want to succeed at Android development will need to seek out additional resources.

I don't like this tutorial. It's way too specific and detailed.
