Ratings and Reviews
Thanks to Dr Adams Porter. I have always look for what I can add to my CV to quite my current jobs, with this the journey has began.
This is one of the best hands-on courses on Android. Dr. Porter explains theory with examples. Lab assignments encouraged me to research the web to formulate the solutions. Project at the end of the course makes use of all concepts taught during lectures and then some more.
I will be subscribing to Part 2 of this course for sure. Many thanks to Dr. Porter and team.
Great course. A little bit too difficult in some parts, but still great.
