At the start of 2018 Udemy ran a promotion where courses could be purchased for up to 95% off their original price so, naturally, I had to take advantage of this and picked up an The Complete Android N Developer Course by Rob Percival.

There are hundreds of courses available and I picked this one because I’ve been interested in making mobile applications for a long time but always found the YouTube videos clunky and disjointed to watch. Based on the high quality content provided by Rob in his Android course I picked up a few others on other topics and found that the overall quality of instructors on Udemy appears to be very high. They, or at least the ones I’ve found, take the time to enunciate clearly and speak at an appropriate pace even if English is not their native language which makes their topic much easier to follow and a pleasure to watch.

I will likely make a future post documenting a basic timer app being developed from start to finish or if I feel confident enough maybe even a simple game good enough for the Play store!
