Create Composables with Jetpack Compose

In this module, you will learn about Jetpack Compose from the ground up and how you can use it to create UI in Android. It will introduce you to the idea of composables used in Jetpack Compose. You will learn how to create composables using existing composables. And later on, you will also learn modify them to change their layout, appearance, and interactivity. Finally, you will tie your learnings together to create truly custom theme for your app using composables and Material Design 3.

Build Layouts with Jetpack Compose

This module teaches how to compose intermediate layouts that employ lists, grids, and scrollable elements.

Anatomy of an Android App

This module provides an overview of the Android project structure as well as some fundamental aspects of working with the SDK. By the end of this module, the student will be familiar with Android Studio. They will able to understand the different measurement unit types available in Android, add resource files to an Android App, and configure the Android App Manifest.

State Management in Jetpack Compose

This module aims to teach learners how to manage state and how to use state to recompose the user interface.

Navigation in Jetpack Compose

This module covers essential navigation concepts and techniques in Jetpack Compose. You will create a multiscreen movie booking app, exploring the Navigation Component, passing arguments between screens, and sharing data with external apps. The course progresses to advanced topics like implementing deep links and setting up a bottom navigation bar. Throughout the module, you gain hands-on experience with key navigation elements such as the navigation graph, controller, and host, while also learning to handle arguments and create a seamless user experience. By the end, you will have a comprehensive understanding of how to implement efficient navigation in Jetpack Compose applications.

Save User State

Saving user state is a critical aspect of Android development. This module will cover the different persistence mechanisms available, including DataStore, Android Files, and Room Database, and how to select the appropriate one based on a given situation. Learners will learn how to save simple data using DataStore, understand the different types of storage available on Android, save and read data from Android Files, and work with Room Database to perform CRUD operations.

Concurrency with Coroutines in Android

In this module, learners will be introduced to the problems of concurrency and learn how to juggle tasks by using Kotlin coroutines.

Concurrency with Kotlin Flow

Kotlin Flow is a powerful tool for handling asynchronous data streams. In this module, learners will be introduced to the concepts of reactive programming with Kotlin Flow. They will learn how to create Flows, leverage operators, handle exceptions, and cancel Flows. By the end of this module, learners will be able to apply reactive programming to collections and asynchronous streams of data.

Network Requests with Retrofit in Android

In this module, learners will learn about some fundamental concepts of networking, the Retrofit library, how Retrofit works with Kotlin Coroutines, what JSON is, and how to use the Moshi library to parse JSON.

The course also covers Android Studio, mutable and immutable variables, variable types, inferred types, operators, null values and more.

The course is designed for the Android platform, taught in Kotlin and uses Android Studio. Upon completion of this course, you will be able to create simple programs using Kotlin programming language.

Introduction to Kotlin Object-Oriented Programming

This module establishes a solid understanding of OOP’s core principles, including encapsulation, abstraction, inheritance and polymorphism.

Advanced Object-Oriented Programming in Kotlin

This module will guide you through some of the common issues that arise when creating apps that are already widely used, providing best practices to address them.

Utilize Control Flow in Kotlin

This module teaches how to use Kotlin’s control flow features to branch code based on variable state.

Leverage Kotlin Functions & Lambdas

This module covers the basics of writing functions and then calling those functions in code. It also covers Kotlin’s lambda features, illustrating how to pass lambdas into functions.

Use Kotlin Classes

This module covers leveraging the powers of classes in Kotlin. It illustrates how to create classes, add properties and methods, and then how to instance them in code. It does not cover general object-oriented programming principles as that is handled in another course.
