Dive into the world of Android application development and create your own Camera App. This course will guide you through using Android Studio, the official IDE for building Android apps. An IDE, or integrated development environment, is basically your programmer's toolkit.
This course specifically focuses on building a Camera App. By the end, you'll be a master of Android Studio and have a cool new app to show for it!
Why Use Android Studio?
There are many reasons to choose Android Studio for your Android application development journey. Here are just a few:
Official Tool from Google
Being Google's official IDE, you can trust that Android Studio is up-to-date and has all the features you need to build amazing apps.
Test without a Device
Don't have an Android device handy? Android Studio lets you test your code with its built-in emulator.
Fast Coding and Building
Streamline your development process with a powerful code editor and Gradle build system.
Project Templates
Stuck staring at a blank screen? Android Studio offers project templates to jumpstart your coding and save you time.
Import Existing Projects
Already have an app started in another program? Android Studio can import your project and make the necessary adjustments for you.
Coding Assistance
Get help as you code. Android Studio offers features like code completion, refactoring tools and compatibility checks.
This course will use Java to build the Camera App but Android Studio also supports working with XML documents.
What will You Learn?
Throughout this course, you'll build a fully functional Camera App for Android devices. Here's a breakdown of what you'll cover:
