Learn to Automate industry workflows
You want to…
- … get a clear structure to learn everything that matters in the industry?… get a clear structure to learn everything that matters in the industry?
- … feel 100% confident about the code you write?
- … learn the essential skill set to stand out in the current market again?
- … get back on track and learn Android’s most modern technologies?
- … stop wasting time on learning what you end up not needing at all?
you will…
- …learn the essentials about CI/CD so you can automate any process like running your app’s tests, distributing it to a testing team, deploying it to Google Play and more.
- …be perfectly prepared for working in the tech industry by experiencing and practicing common processes used across the industry
- …learn about Google Play Console and how you can use it to make your app available to the public
- …stop wasting time with courses that leave out meaningful details
- …be able to confidently approach your next job because you know what you can expect there
This is what you get:
Introduction
In the first section, you’ll learn what CI/CD is, why it’s used and you’ll get to know Bitrise – the CI/CD provider we’ll use in this course.That way, nobody gets left behind.
Continuous integration in practice
Here, we’ll directly dive into practice. In this section, you’ll build an actual app in a simulated corporate environment.
This is what you’ll learn:
- Professionally using GitHub
- Different Git branching strategies from the industry and directly apply one in the project you build
- Creating useful CI pipelines that automate important workflows like running your app’s unit or UI tests
Continuous delivery in practice
This section is all about delivering your app to those who will use it.
This is what you’ll learn here:
- How you can automatically distribute your APK to a team of testers as it’s common in the tech industry
- What it takes to upload your app to Google Play
- Creating an automated pipeline that will update your app in Google Play with a single click
This Is What You Will Build
In the practice part of the course, you’ll build a Material3 clone of the Google Pixel calculator. For this app, you’ll write some real unit and UI tests you’ll then use to automatically verify with your CI pipeline that everything works as expected. This type of app was carefully chosen, since it allows us to write a lot of useful test cases without having a huge project that would shift away the focus of this course from CI/CD.
What is CI/CD?
What is CI?
CI stands for continuous integration and is all about automating the decision whether you want to integrate one branch into another.
Merging one branch (e.g. a new feature branch into the production branch) can be quite dangerous in practice, as you can easily include bugs and issues in your production code. To minimize these risks and enable faster feedback loops, you can setup CI pipelines which will automatically run your app’s unit tests, UI tests, run a linting tool and so on. To implement this, there are plenty of different providers you can choose from. In this course, you’ll learn about Bitrise, but the concepts can be transferred to other providers as well.
What is CD?
CD stands for continuous delivery is about automating the delivery of your app to either a group of testers or to your actual user base.
With a correctly set up CD pipeline, you can speed up your development by a lot, since you can automate updating your app on Google Play. Therefore, there is no more need to manually upload your APK to Google Play and configuring everything by hand.
Philipp Lackner has over 14 years of experience in the software field. Over the past years, he built a following of over 250,000 developers on social media who trust his work. With over 25,000 sold copies of his courses and 1,000h+ spent for teaching Android concepts, he already helped hundreds of thousands people to learn practical skills they can immediately apply.
He has a degree in computer science, however it didn’t go as expected. The amount of theory that was taught in university made him think about a better approach to learn what is really needed in the real world. Over time, Philipp found mentors who taught him exactly that in a practical setting. That was the game changer for his career.
After having worked for dozens of companies around the globe as a consultant, Philipp now wants to teach other Kotlin developers what really counts for becoming an outstanding developer in today’s competitive industry.
