Introduction

Audience of This Book

This book is intended primarily for Android developers who want to better understand user interfaces in Android, but it also has a strong design focus, so designers can benefit from it as well. In order to focus on the important topics of Android user interface design, this book makes the assumption that you already have a basic understanding of Android. For example, if you’re looking to learn about the development side, this book makes the assumption that you’ve at least made a “Hello, World” Android app and don’t need help setting up your computer for development (if that’s not the case, the Android developer site is a good place to start: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/index.html
