Advanced Android in Kotlin course.
Advanced Android in Kotlin is a course created by the Google Developers Training team. This course provides a series of codelabs that lead you through the advanced topics of building Android apps using Kotlin. In this course, you learn advanced Android Kotlin programming concepts and build various apps.
We recommend that you take the codelabs in sequence, but it's not a requirement. Each lesson includes a tutorial app with solution code in GitHub. See the course contents for a list of codelabs and their associated apps.

To take the Advanced Android in Kotlin course, you must have Kotlin programming experience and know the fundamentals of how to build an Android app using the Kotlin language.
You should be familiar with all the concepts, tools, and vocabulary taught in the Kotlin Bootcamp for Programmers course as well as the Android Fundamentals in Kotlin course.
