Summary

So far, we have set up an Android development environment, and created and deployed an app on both an emulator and a real device. If you still have unanswered questions (and you probably have more than at the start of the chapter), don't worry, because as we dig deeper into the world of Android and Kotlin, things will become clearer.

As the chapters progress, you will build a very rounded understanding of how everything fits together, and then success will just be a matter of practice and digging even deeper into the Android API.

In the next chapter, we will edit the UI using the visual designer and raw XML code, as well as writing our first Kotlin functions, and we will get to use some of the functions provided for us by the Android API.
