Developing applications for the Android mobile operating system can be a daunting task, especially if it requires learning a new programming language like Kotlin. However, 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 have extensively explored implementations of the most common tasks in native Android development, showcasing how Kotlin can help developers solve concurrency problems. The book focuses on structured concurrency, a new asynchronous programming paradigm, and guides readers through one of Kotlin's most powerful constructs, coroutines.

In this comprehensive guide, readers will delve into the essentials of Kotlin, including the Kotlin Collections Framework, Android fundamentals, thread safety, concurrency handling, sequential and asynchronous work, coroutines, channels for communication, flows for asynchronous data processing, and performance considerations using Android profiling tools. The authors also provide practical tips and techniques for optimizing resource consumption, ensuring efficient and high-performance applications on the Android platform.

Whether you are a seasoned Android developer or just starting your journey, this book will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed to leverage Kotlin's power and build robust, scalable, and efficient Android applications. So, why wait? Start your journey to becoming a Kotlin expert today and unlock the full potential of Android development with this essential guide!
