Building adaptive Android apps

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wBc6oMVAP60

Android is extremely flexible, running across an ever-growing range of devices and form factors. Despite this, it's still common to approach UI from a portrait-only, compact window mindset. Even if your main focus is on phones, changing how you approach UI can drastically improve users' experiences across foldables, tablets, and more, while preventing tech debt that a portrait-only mindset can create. In this talk, learn how to build adaptive Android apps and future-proof your app.
