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 this chapter), don't worry because as we dig deeper into the world of Android and Java, 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 deeper into the Android API.

In the next chapter, we will edit the UI using the visual designer and raw XML code, write our first Java methods, and get to use some methods provided to us by the Android API.
