Android Programming Cookbook

Delve into the world of Android Programming with this compact cookbook that introduces common recipes for the Android platform! Android is a mobile operating system developed by Google, based on the Linux kernel and designed primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Android's user interface is mainly based on direct manipulation, using touch gestures that loosely correspond to real-world actions, such as swiping, tapping and pinching, to manipulate on-screen objects, along with a virtual keyboard for text input. In this ebook, we provide a compilation of Android programming examples that will help you kick-start your own web projects. We cover a wide range of topics, from Services and Views, to Google Maps and Bluetooth functionality. With our straightforward tutorials, you will be able to get your own projects up and running in minimum time. With this free eBook you will also receive weekly news, tips and special offers delivered to your inbox courtesy of Java Code Geeks.
