Android 101, Class 4
Instead of focusing on styling in yesterday’s class, we focused on the Java code to make the calculator work. We’ve moved the styling lab and material to today’s class. If you were having trouble with the calculator portion of the class – do not dispair! Download the latest code from the classroom example so you can follow along with the styling lab today.

Beginning Android with IntelliJ
Welcome future Android developers!

Please install all of the following before class begins. It takes a long time to install several of these tools, so it would be hard on the class bandwidth and will take a lot of time to get ready while the class is going on around you!
Philly Food Swap
The husband and I participated in our second Philly Food Swap on Wednesday at the beautiful Wyck Historic House & Garden. It’s always a great time meeting other foodies and exchanging handmade goodies!
