Fully updated for Android Studio 4.1, the goal of this book is to teach the skills necessary to develop Android based applications using the Kotlin programming language.

Beginning with the basics, this book provides an outline of the steps necessary to set up an Android development and testing environment followed by an introduction to programming in Kotlin including data types, flow control, functions, lambdas and object-oriented programming.

An overview of Android Studio is included covering areas such as tool windows, the code editor and the Layout Editor tool. An introduction to the architecture of Android is followed by an in-depth look at the design of Android applications and user interfaces using the Android Studio environment.

Chapters are also included covering the Android Architecture Components including view models, lifecycle management, Room database access, the Database Inspector, app navigation, live data and data binding.

More advanced topics such as intents are also covered, as are touch screen handling, gesture recognition, and the recording and playback of audio. This edition of the book also covers printing, transitions, cloud-based file storage and foldable device support.

The concepts of material design are also covered in detail, including the use of floating action buttons, Snackbars, tabbed interfaces, card views, navigation drawers and collapsing toolbars.

Other key features of Android Studio 4.1 and Android are also covered in detail including the Layout Editor, the ConstraintLayout and ConstraintSet classes, MotionLayout Editor, view binding, constraint chains, barriers and direct reply notifications.

Chapters also cover advanced features of Android Studio such as App Links, Dynamic Delivery, the Android Studio Profiler, Gradle build configuration, and submitting apps to the Google Play Developer Console.

Assuming you already have some programming experience, are ready to download Android Studio and the Android SDK, have access to a Windows, Mac or Linux system and ideas for some apps to develop, you are ready to get started.

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2021
This is an excellent book, however, there is a later version covering Android Studio 4.2. You may want to consider the later version.

Was habe ich gesucht:

Informationen zu einzelnen Themen wie z.B. Fragments und diversen anderen, aber auch eine geführte Herangehensweise.

Habe ich gefunden :)
Der Schreibstil ist gut, nicht flüchtig und es macht Spaß das Buch (bei mir als Kindle-Version) zu lesen.

5.0 out of 5 stars 開発者にも、これから開発者になろうと言う人にも進められる一冊。ただし4.0との差は小さい。
Reviewed in Japan on November 17, 2020

見ての通りの７００ページ超の大作ではあるが、Kotlin版の本書ではKotlin入門まで掲載されている。

開発者が辞書的に使うこともできるし、初心者が最初から順を追って読んでいけばまともなAndroid開発者になる準備ができたと言っていいだろう。

Overflow menu, Google Mapに関する４９、８５章が割愛された。その分あちこちで記述を改めたのか、ページ数はほとんど同じ。

前の版を持っていれば買わなくてもいいかもしれない。

ただこの版がStudio 4.1, Android 11(R)対応で前の版が4.0, 10(Q)対応であると言うことに重大な意味を見出す人達にとっては必読文献リストに入るだろう。

5.0 out of 5 stars Android, Kotoni開発ではかなり良い本

日本語の本も眺めましたが、この本が丁寧に多くのことを説明してくれているので、これでAndroidのプログラムが一応書けるようになりました。Kotlinはまったくの初心者、自分のためやグループ内の人のためにC#でプログラムを書いたり、Python, C++の講義をするレベルでの感想です。
