excellent essentials!

Great hands-on course. Teacher is great, and course materials are well prepared. Only frustrating part is the horrible tooling (Android Studio and above all the resource consuming emulator).

By Joseph on 21-Feb-18

Learned a ton already in the first part. Part 2 has a lot of very useful topics, like multi-touch, graphics, sensors, and so on. Challenging, but very much worth the time. Highly recommended.

a bit slow at times, but a damn good introduction to Android programming!

By Vikas K S on 18-Oct-17

This course will help only if you follow up well on the exercises and readings suggested. Mere videos will not help much. Take up this course if you have enough time for that. But if you follow through these, this is a good avenue to master the subject very well.
