How to Build Android Apps with Kotlin: A practical guide to developing, testing, and publishing your first Android apps Review: Like new - Love it. Fast shipping, high quality. Book is like brand new Review: Not for beginner kotlin developers - The authors do not explain how you should setup an android app. They just show you the code and assume you understand it. They lack in explaining why they chose the code that they show. Way too much in the geek world and not enough of practically for the beginner. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,978,527 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #664 in Mobile App Development & Programming #4,231 in Internet & Telecommunications #16,480 in Computer Science (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 3.7 3.7 out of 5 stars (23) | | Dimensions | 7.5 x 1.66 x 9.25 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 1837634939 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1837634934 | | Item Weight | 2.62 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 704 pages | | Publication date | May 2, 2023 | | Publisher | Packt Publishing | ## Images ![How to Build Android Apps with Kotlin: A practical guide to developing, testing, and publishing your first Android apps - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/616Ilhx7SLL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Like new *by M***O on December 18, 2023* Love it. Fast shipping, high quality. Book is like brand new ### ⭐ Not for beginner kotlin developers *by D***L on November 4, 2023* The authors do not explain how you should setup an android app. They just show you the code and assume you understand it. They lack in explaining why they chose the code that they show. Way too much in the geek world and not enough of practically for the beginner. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Detailed with explanations and exercises covering a large surface area of Android development *by M***S on July 23, 2023* This book is very detailed and combines explanations with practical activities and exercises. It starts with how to create an Android app from scratch and ends with how to get the app on the app store. It has everything from how to setup, build screens, build an architecture, navigation, persisting data, network access. The sections I found most interesting were Part 3 which deals with testing and architecture and the chapter on coroutines and flows in Part 4. The second edition of this book has been expanded to include Flows and Compose. This is a good book for orientation around the whole process of building an app. Since it covers so much, it may not be the best resource if you are looking for in depth knowledge about a specific topic like Compose or Flows. It is enough to get you to the point where you understand how it fits in with the bigger picture and gives you some basic concepts which you can then research for more detail in the official docs. It isn't the kind of book that you can read from cover to cover but rather one where you pick a topic from the table of contents and dip in. For this purpose it is well structured. ## Frequently Bought Together - How to Build Android Apps with Kotlin - Second Edition: A practical guide to developing, testing, and publishing your first Android apps - Modern Android 13 Development Cookbook: Over 70 recipes to solve Android development issues and create better apps with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose - Android UI Development with Jetpack Compose - Second Edition: Bring declarative and native UI to life quickly and easily on Android using Jetpack Compose and Kotlin --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/532321253-how-to-build-android-apps-with-kotlin-a-practical-guide](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/532321253-how-to-build-android-apps-with-kotlin-a-practical-guide) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
