Android Training in Waterloo

Android is Google's mobile operating system. This course demonstrates through hands-on practice the fundamentals of Android.

The objective of cross-platform frameworks is to allow you to write applications once and have it run on multiple platforms. Want to build an iPhone app that will also run on Android? Have a customer turn round and want their Android app to run on Windows Phone? No problem. On this three-day PhoneGap/Apache Cordova course you will look at two different yet complimentary technologies for cross-platform mobile development. (Apache Cordova is the new name for PhoneGap. Adobe acquired PhoneGap from the original developers and gifted it to the Apache Software Foundation.) Upon completion of this PhoneGap/Apache Cordova course, you will be able to build fully-functioning mobile Web applications using the framework, manage source code and handle platform tweaks, create “native like” experiences from a web application -- and much more!

This course has been created for everyone interested in creating Android applications. During this course, you will learn the fundamental skills required for building Android applications from scratch using interesting features added to the Android platform, like background processing, database access and location-Based Services.

Objectives: Upon completion of this training course, the delegate will be able to:

• Build their own Android Application and upload it to the Android Market.
• Develop for simulators and real devices.
• Learn all the basics of Android Development.
