Modern Android App development using Kotlin

Description

Kotlin is the state-of-the-art alternative to Java and can be used in a wide range of scenarios, even outside the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). You can, for example, use Kotlin to implement native Android apps, web backends or cross-platform libraries.

This training provides a practice-oriented introduction to the programming language Kotlin and modern Android app development. The trainer, Johannes Schamburger,brings extensive expertise from his projects and incorporates his experiences into the training.

The participants learn all the important tools to develop Android apps with Kotlin. The training is strongly based on the official Android development documentation. In the course, participants develop a small app (Github Client), which is expanded bit by bit. All mediated content is practiced directly in tasks.

This training focuses on the idea of ​​learning together. There is always the opportunity to exchange ideas, ask questions and influence the content of the training.
