Programming Android with Kotlin: Achieving Structured Concurrency with Coroutines

by Pierre-Olivier Laurence, Amanda Hinchman-Dominguez, Mike Dunn

Developing applications for the Android mobile operating system can seem daunting, particularly if it requires learning a new programming Kotlin, now Androidâ??s official development language. With this practical book, Android developers will learn how to make the transition from Java to Kotlin, including how Kotlin provides a true advantage for gaining control over asynchronous computations. Authors Pierre-Olivier Laurence, Amanda Hinchman-Dominguez, G. Blake Meike, and Mike Dunn explore implementations of the most common tasks in native Android development, and show you how Kotlin can help you solve concurrency problems. With a focus on structured concurrency, a new asynchronous programming paradigm, this book will guide you through one of Kotlin's most powerful constructs, coroutines.
