You set up Android Studio, learn Kotlin, Google's recommended language for Android, and build screens with Jetpack Compose, Android's modern UI toolkit. You then manage app state with ViewModel, store data with Room, call web APIs with Retrofit, run background work with WorkManager, use device sensors and Google Maps, add sign-in with Firebase, and finally publish your app on Google Play.
