WHAT YOU WLL LEARN
Gain a mastery of the skills you need to land as an Android Developer. GreaterHeight Academy teaches the in-demand skills you need to become an Android Stack Developer in just 4 to 6 months, and you will learn the following from fundamentals through advance, depending on your receptiveness to teaching and mentoring:
Reactive Java
Programming
Reactive Programming is a programming style which deals with asynchronous data streams! A development model which focuses on observing data streams and reacting on changes and propagating them. You learn Reactive Programming to build Reactive Systems - a highly resilient distributed systems or Microservices! Modern applications support huge number of concurrent users.
The Course includes:
Learning Reactive Programming with Java
RESTful Java
Programming
Unless you’re building an application that tends to ignore the Internet, the chances are at some point you’re going to need to know about RESTful Web Service. RESTful Java Programming will show you how to make sure that your applications are Internet-aware, and are ready to communicate with other web services.
The Course includes:
RESTful Java Web Services
RESTful Java Patterns and Best Practices
Android Development
Fundamentals
As Android applications grow in complexity, it is important to make sure that they are built on solid foundations. In this skill card, we quickly go over the basics to get you up to speed with Android, Android Studio, and Java.Welcome to this Learn Android the Easy Way: Build a Real App. If you want to learn Android Apps development from scratch, then this is the course for you.
The Course includes:
Android Programming for Beginners
Android UI
Design
Making great and engaging applications starts with the design: if it doesn’t feel great to use, your customers won’t use your application. With the increasing number of devices and screen sizes accessing your application, delivering that great user experience consistently has become its own challenge over the past few years.
The Course includes:
Learning Material Design
Creating Dynamic UI with Android Fragments
Advanced Android
Development
Professional development is about knowing how to both make applications that look great and write code that will scale, and Android is no different. You need to know how to use fundamentals to create applications that can be used by millions of people simultaneously. This incorporates everything from design to handling data, to integrating the latest Android features that your users are desperate to use.
The Course includes:
Advanced Android Development
Mastering Android Application Development
Android 11 Essentials
Android High Performance
Programming
Less than 1% of Android devices are running the latest version of Android. In fact, the majority of the devices in circulation are currently using Jellybean or below; the majority of your audience is using hardware that is several years old. You need to know how to make the most of the hardware you have available, and make sure that your applications take up as little resources as possible.
The Course includes:
Asynchronous Android
Android NDK: Beginner's Guide
Android SQLite Essentials
Android Studio
Basics
Since its release in 2013, Android Studio has become the de facto IDE for Android development. Whilst its features do simplify the building of applications in the long term, it has its own learning requirements and can be pretty overwhelming to newcomers.
The Course includes:
Android Studio Practical
Git
Fundamentals
Git is a magic tool you can use that can reverse time, resurrect old versions of code, and allow all developers to work simultaneously on one code base. It’s one of the most important developer tools available today, and is used in all areas of software development—from web development to data science.
The Course includes:
Mastering Git
Git Version Control Practical
Jira
Administration
An important part of any software development cycle is project management: mainly bug tracking and issue tracking. Without this, your projects are prone to go to production with bugs that you’ve either forgotten exist or got noticed during testing and were never fixed. Jira is a tool that helps you manage these features across a large team, and make sure that every issue is tracked and fixed before deployment.
The Course includes:
JIRA Essentials
JIRA 6.x Administration Practical
