Hello!
I looked for resources to learn WinUI with C++ but couldn't find relevant material because most of the articles were about WinUI and C# development. However, I was able to find some sources for XAML. Can you refer some relevant guides, books, tutorials (text or video format) or any other useful resources.
Thanks!

I want to learn Java and a work colleague has suggested a book called Dummies guide to Java. Any other recommendations on where to start and is it worth downloading ebooks to learn Java?
The Complete Reference, Java. This is a great book. There any many tutorials online too, some even directly from Oracle (who own Java). Remember that books can only teach you so much. You can learn the syntax and methods for writing code through books and tutorials, but you'll only learn proper programming if you look at various examples of Java code and try to understand them yourself, and try your hand at implementing those programs using your own logic and method rather than copy-pasting.
For Android development, the developers guide to Android at www.android.com is very comprehensive and provides all the required information to anyone with a good understanding of Java.

I am very interested in learning how to develop for Android. Could anyone let me know what the best way is to get started I have installed the Java JDK and Eclipse and so far created the Hello World! App as per Google's own how to get started tutorial.
I have no experience programming except very basic HTML (Dreamweaver).
My goal is to learn how to develop for Android, from as much as I know it is Java based, should I learn Java before trying to do anything else, or should I just follow Google's own Tutorial ?
If there are books to get which ones are the best ones to get going? Which websites are the best ones to learn? What other resources should I consider?
I don't mind having to spend a couple dollars, but I have looked around and where I live there are no Java courses available.
You should first learn Java or at least the basics on Object Orientated Programming.
I want to pass you 2 links for video tutorials about Android Programming, maybe will help:

Having an understanding of Java will be good, as you'd be more comfortable when writing or understanding the code structure/syntaxes. You can also learn while doing Tutorials on Android, but scope on Java will be limited though. So basically its your choice.
Tutorials from the Android developer website is good. You can also consider going to these websites, as they have some good resources :
Video Tutorials : http://thenewboston.org/list.php?cat=6 (Already specified by above person)
Another set : http://www.vogella.com/articles/Android/article.html
Linux.com's series of Fresh Tutorials : http://www.linux.com/learn/docs
And if you Google for more Tutorials, you'd get more too. Cheers!

Hey guys,
I just want to make android dictionary app with only over a thousand of words. I have the list of words and their meanings in Word Microsoft office . I have installed all the android packages i need. Do i need to know a lot about java to make this dictionary? I dont know anything about programming but i just want to make this app. how do i start about programming dictionary? Do you have any suggestion webs/ tutorials similar to programming dictionary?
Appreciate your help!
java is necessary for android application development
if you don't know java , I suggest learning the basics of java ,especially concepts of objects and classes
there are many online / offline java guides/books/tutorials
I myself referred to local books and Complete Reference Java
once you have learnt java , you can refer to developer.android.com and read about the basic APIs training part
also you can refer to video tutorials by thenewboston , they are also good
all the best :thumbup:

Hello,
I am interested in learning how to program for android. I have designed websites, but no experience in programming. I now that this is not a quick thing, but I am able and willing to spend 4-5 hours a day in learning. However, I have no idea where to start, searching the internet overwhelms me with information.
I have a kindle where I could read any books you recommend and obviously I have a computer.
My question is, if anybody could help me to design a pathway to programming Android applications, from basics in programming languages to the usage of the SDK, consisting of book, tutorials, videos etc.
I know it is a crazy intention, but I would be really thankful for any help.
I'm still learning myself but if your totally new to java and all I would start by watching and following the first 15 videos of this playlist here . When you do that then go here.
The first videos help you with setup and give you some java basics that will help you out later. The second starts you off on the fourth video in a playlist that will teach you programing in java.
I would start with plain Java since the foundational knowledge should translate over to Android development. Get familiar with the language syntax and so forth first, then focus on Android APIs later on once you have the basics down.
If your talking about HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) then you couldn't of picked something better to start with, HTML is easy to learn and a great introduction to how lots of things work. So if your looking to learn more languages you should Google some tutorials and find one that suits your style best (I would not recommend video tutorials, its much better to see all the examples and move at your own pace with regular tutorials):thumbup:

HTML is a great start for understanding code in general. After that start looking into java. If you feel confident look into other languages.
hi,
after i learnt C++ and java i thought its time to start to learn android programming, but i practiced more on making apps classes ect, i learnt other stuff, and the life got me to learn Avr , C++ , Java , Python , Qt , others... and learn more and get better, now that i also know more about GUI , i think its time to go back and learn how to program for android ! but the problem is, developer.google.com is banned and forbidden here, also i can't see any videos ! so, i only can read a book, i saw tutorials point tutorial but it had no explains, just examples, i didn't know what each function do or what that class is for, so i want a tutorial that explains code, not just copy pasting examples, like cplusplus.com tutorial i learn c++ from, very good tutorials and explanations !i got Kitkat api only and sdk + ndk + eclipse and plugins, i meant adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20131030.zip
i got it from a friend in Boston !
any good books to help me start learning? also i feel better to write in c++ but i will chose whatever language which has more features ect for android ( guess its java ) even if its harder. also the new dev tools and api announced in google i/o , i guess if i read old books i can find out how to use the new stuff by myself, when i started Qt, i would easily guess all the stuff my self, i only found out name of classes and learnt it almost by my self!
Apologies for hijacking your thread with my own query, but it is in a similar vein to yours so I thought it made more sense than starting a new thread.
I too am looking for a book to learn from. I am not a developer, but I have learnt from this site that I need to roote my Note 3 before I can use the extSD card. What i need therefore is a first steps learner book explaining what roms are, what flashing is etc. I realise that all this is in various places on the web but it always assumes a starting point beyond what I can understand and is presented in a disjointed forum Q&A which looses me further.
can anyone recommend such a book?
Thanks
Check my post. It have some links to free online courses. http://forum.xda-developers.com/coding/education/newbies-to-android-development-start-t2819202
