Android continues to be one of the leading mobile OS and development
platforms driving today's mobile innovations and the apps ecosystem.
Android appears complex, but offers a variety of organized development
kits to those coming into Android with differing programming language
skill sets.

through a wide range of useful topics using complete and real-world

you can consider copying and pasting the code and configuration files
from this book and then modifying them for your own customization needs.
