Currently, Android can be developed using the Java and Kotlin languages. The same Android application can be developed using either language. This course covers most of the content from basic to advanced Android application development, and all code is written using the Kotlin language starting from the basic content. We also use Material 3, Google's latest UI library. This course mainly covers menus, Android application components, threads, and Fragments among the entire Android curriculum, and future courses are planned to cover more in-depth topics. Soft Campus will always strive to provide the latest lectures. Thank you.
