First-Generation Books

In the beginning, Android development was focused on Java and, partially, on the Android Support Library. Mark's earliest books share that focus:

• The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development, the first and largest book on Android app programming

• Android's Architecture Components

• GraphQL and Android

Things Other Than Books

He runs the jetc.dev weekly newsletter for Jetpack Compose.

He also offers office hours chats and consulting on Android app development, in case you are interested in help beyond what fits the Stack Overflow model, the books, and the training.

Heck, he even has a blog.
