Time to switch things up! Stepping away from the technical side of things, the third session focuses more on the design of an Android app. You'll get to explore various aspects of UI such as styles, icons, and more! You'll also pick up another important concept in Kotlin, building on the previous sessions. Finally, you'll build another interactive app, albeit a more elegant one.

About this event

The design of your app can make or break the user experience. Take a break from the technical side of things and step into the world of Android UI design! The third session looks at the other side of Android development: UI Design. Explore various aspects of UI design like app styles, app themes, icons, and more. This session also takes on another important concept in Kotlin, building upon objects and classes from the last session.

Finally, you'll build another interactive, yet more elegant app employing the concepts covered in this pathway.

See you there!
