SFU Google Developer Club

Interested in developing apps? We're excited to announce that we’ll be kicking off Android Study Jams for our chapter. This is an event series for people who are new to programming and interested in developing Android apps with the support of a study group. Starting on October 14, at TASC 2 7201 , we will be meeting every Thursday for 5 weeks and working through a curriculum that is offered by Google on Android development.

You’ll learn the basics of programming and how to apply those skills to building basic Android apps in the Kotlin programming language. All you need to bring is your laptop computer and headphones. Your computer should meet the system requirements or install Android Studio ahead of time, if that’s your preference.Having an Android device is optional, but if you do have one, bring that with a USB cable so you can learn to run your apps on your device.
