Resources

There are many resources available for getting started with Android development. It is important that you understand the Activity Lifecycle as doing so will help you in making decisions that will improve efficiency and give users the smoothest experience possible. In general, Android's Developer Guides are very useful, and include a good page about Application Fundamentals.

As we add new features and build upon old ones, it is increasingly likely that team members will find themselves needing to work with Firebase Authentication. While learning Firebase, you should refer to its documentation. We will provide some insight within the Wiki documentation as to how, when, and why we perform certain, common actions using Firebase. However, this is no replacement for getting to know the basics using the documentation or other outside tutorials.

For version control, we highly recommend using Android's built-in system. This is a good crash course tutorial for it.
