Finding resources on creating apps with the Android framework and Kotlin is easy, but discovering content that addresses the common challenges faced by app developers is difficult. This book is designed to bridge that gap and equip you with the skills to tackle everyday problems in Android development.
You'll get hands on with Android development by building an app similar to WhatsApp. Next, you'll learn how to process asynchronous messages reactively, render them using Jetpack Compose, and advance to creating and uploading a backup of these messages. As you progress, you'll develop Packtagram, an app inspired by Instagram, focused on advanced photo-editing capabilities using the latest CameraX libraries. Finally, you'll build your own Netflix-like app, integrating video playback functionality with ExoPlayer for both foreground and background operations, and enabling casting to other devices.
By the end of this book, you'll have crafted three fully functional projects across multiple platforms and gained the expertise to solve the most common challenges in Android development confidently.
