You’re Not an Android Developer Anymore
Android isn't going away, but your job might be. Your job, as it is today, is in danger. With the rapid changes in AI to allow more work to be done by a single developer, more technical and prototyping work done by product and management, pressure like we have never seen to do more with less staff, and the ever-increasing business, consumer, and leadership skills shifted-left onto you as a dev - it can feel impossible to stay relevant or feel capable. Then add KMP being the future of application development in ways that Flutter and React never could be as mobile development reaches market maturity, and you have some choices you need to make now. We can do this. You can do this. Together, we are going to talk about how to enact real change to provide value in your job, focus on your goals, architecture built for tomorrow, and balance adding technologies so that you are ready to maximize your impact or even just stay afloat.
