This book shows you how common tasks are done in Android Studio using Kotlin, pointing out where necessary how this differs from the Java approach. Given that you can’t avoid Java altogether, author Mike James also explains how Kotlin can work with the Java-based Android SDK.The focus is on what need to know to write an app with a single Activity and a UI, a good foundation for further Android programming.
