Learn Advanced Android By Doing
There is no better way to learn something than by doing
I am Amit Shekhar, Co-Founder @ Outcome School • IIT 2010–14 • I have taught and mentored many developers, and their efforts landed them high-paying tech jobs, helped many tech companies in solving their unique problems, and created many open-source libraries being used by top companies. I am passionate about sharing knowledge through open-source, blogs, and videos.
This blog will help you in learning advanced Android.
Undoubtedly, there is no better way to learn something than by doing. We all learn anything in the best possible way by doing.
I have been working with small and big companies for years. While working with these companies, I solved many great problems with great problem-solving techniques. These techniques are helping us in solving the upcoming problems too while building real scalable Android applications.
While working, I also created a platform for the developers to share my knowledge. It is now one of the largest platforms that have helped millions of developers learn advanced Android App Development and get better jobs.
More than that, I understood what are developer’s career aspirations, are and the things they want to learn.
