Android Class at Valencia College

We are having an Android App Development class at Valencia starting in August (East campus).  It is COP 2660, and has a pre-requisite of COP2800 Java Programming, or permission of instructor.  There are some seats left, so I thought I would put it up here for the community - albeit a very quiet community :)

 

If you are interested in iOS programming, we are also having one of those on West campus with a few seats left.  You need to ahve any OO programming language to get into that one. 

 

Let me know if you have any questions about these.

 

Cheers,

Colin Archibald

WebMCP Standard Proposal for Agentic Web Actuation Now Available in Chrome (Origin Trials)

Google recently announced that WebMCP is entering origin trials in Chrome 149.
