I gave a two hour tutorial on developing for Android at work today for our weekly tech talk. Similar in style to my coworker Aaron Ortbals’ tutorial on Ember.js, I showed how to build a client for GitHub’s Events API.
Topics included:
- Project setup
- Gradle dependencies
- API requests & JSON parsing
- Activities & fragments
- Lists, adapters, and custom item layouts
You can find the source code and the slides for the tutorial on GitHub.
