Interview with an Android Developer смотреть онлайн

This video as a very special celebration video, its a way for me to give back to you all, to say thank you for all your support and love the past few weeks/months. This is my video to celebrate reaching my first YouTube milestone of 100 SUBSCRIBERS! Thank you all so so much!

In this very special video I Interview a real life professional Android developer from the company I work at, Shop Direct. The android developer is a fantastic gent called Graham Bryan and I ask him a whole variety of questions (questions and timestamps are down below if you want to skip ahead...) in order to learn from him about his journey into the world of android development and how he became an industry professional and some of the technical challenges that he overcame along the way, whilst at the same time exposing important knowledge about how you too can start your journey to become an Android Developer!

We talk about some of the current topics that are prevalent in the world of Android, such as Android Architecture Components, migrating to Kotlin from Java, ways to get into Android development and how to learn it and even the vast world of Unit Testing in Android. Graham is an incredibly insightful and knowledgable person and I learnt a lot from him simply shooting this video, so its safe to say if you have any interest in the world of Android this is a video for you!

I hope you enjoy this very special video, I know I enjoyed filming and editing it. Please let me know what you think and even maybe any other questions you would like to ask maybe in the future we could do a follow up video?

...Pssssst by the way if you hang around long enough in the video and make it to the outro card there are a couple of video surprises at the end in the for of some bloopers and some strange wonderful things that the camera captured as we were rolling... check it out ;)
