00:00:00,006 --> 00:00:02,007
- [Annyce] Our phones are mini computers

2
00:00:02,007 --> 00:00:05,003
that we carry with us in our pockets,

3
00:00:05,003 --> 00:00:10,000
and no other platform is as ubiquitous as Android.

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,008
In this course, I'll walk you through setting up

5
00:00:12,008 --> 00:00:15,005
your Android development environment.

6
00:00:15,005 --> 00:00:18,003
We'll be working with Android Studio,

7
00:00:18,003 --> 00:00:21,002
an IDE developed by Google based

8
00:00:21,002 --> 00:00:24,005
on the popular IntelliJ IDEA.

9
00:00:24,005 --> 00:00:28,000
Its unique features and capabilities ease the complexity

10
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,001
of Android development.

11
00:00:30,001 --> 00:00:32,005
We'll also explore the essential components

12
00:00:32,005 --> 00:00:36,001
that make up modern Android applications.

13
00:00:36,001 --> 00:00:39,007
You'll learn how to use the power of XML and Kotlin

14
00:00:39,007 --> 00:00:43,000
to create unique user experiences.

15
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,005
And along the way, I'll be sharing tips and tricks

16
00:00:46,005 --> 00:00:50,001
to help boost your proficiency with the platform.

17
00:00:50,001 --> 00:00:52,000
I'm an Annyce Davis, and I've worked

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,002
in the software industry for over a decade.

19
00:00:55,002 --> 00:00:58,000
Although I've worked with various technologies,

20
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
developing Android applications is my specialty.

21
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,003
I look forward to getting you started

22
00:01:04,003 --> 00:01:07,002
developing your first Android app.

23
00:01:07,002 --> 00:01:08,009
I hope you're ready to join me

24
00:01:08,009 --> 00:01:11,001
on my LinkedIn Learning course

25
00:01:11,001 --> 00:01:14,002
all about the essentials of Android development.
