Review: Good for intermediate programmers - I have done some introductory Android development in the past and wanted to both brush up and dig deeper this time. I do not have experience with kotlin but have some experience with Scala, Java, python. So I entered the book with some real-world programming experience, but do not consider myself a Thought Leader in programming. I found the book to be very good. Noteworthy: I had to pay attention; skipping ahead to the code snippets will end up skipping some actual coding or confusing which file the adjustments need to be made, etc. But he does take the time to point out interesting nuances with kotlin or with the various data binding tie-ins, which are helpful. I could see how an inexperienced programmer might have trouble ingesting those asides, though, because there is some basic assumed knowledge (for example pointing out how certain syntax will prevent or handle a NullPointerException). The pacing is good as well, and the way concepts build upon one another as the text moves is a nice way to learn, and to reinforce learning along the way. The source code comes in handy, too, as it's laid out in per-chapter folders. I've referenced that multiple times when a concept or syntax seems a bit out of reach to me. I should point out that there are one or two things that have changed in Android Studio in the short time since this has been published, so the first chapter ended up having some of those very foundational, basic errors that I had to work past. The book doesn't know about these (although there are appendices that I did not reference for those errors, to be truthful). So again, if you have experience troubleshooting those odd errors that come up when starting a new development project, then you can probably get going without too much grief. Overall I found this to be a great fit for me, a person with programming experience that wanted to better understand Android development. Review: Fantastic - I just love First Head's style of teaching. First Head's Kotlin book, and all the other other books I have that they put out work really well for me. After each chapter I find that the information stays embedded in my memory as the format, fun asides, and exercises really work for remembrance. Thanks guys and gals! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09B2YN77R | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,669,511 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #508 in Java Computer Programming #714 in Web Services #856 in Mobile Device Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (23) | | Edition | 1st | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 9.7 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-1680508680 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 708 pages | | Publication date | June 15, 2021 | | Publisher | Pragmatic Bookshelf | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Not Enabled | | X-Ray | Not Enabled | ## Images ![Kotlin and Android Development featuring Jetpack: Build Better, Safer Android Apps - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71eHxXxnFJL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for intermediate programmers *by B***N on October 7, 2021* I have done some introductory Android development in the past and wanted to both brush up and dig deeper this time.
