masterclass on architecture & mobile devops
Get your Android skill to the next level
6 week program that will change the way you build Android apps
cohort #3 starts on 4.03.2024
I have one question for you…
Are you tired of complex and hard to maintain Android projects?
Your are not alone.
Building Android app is easy. Maintaining and scaling app development process is hard.
Android developers across the world everyday face challenges coming from:
❌ Lack of proper architecture
❌ Unreliable build process
❌ Adjusting application to ever changing business needs
That’s why we built The Android Architect – program that will teach you step-by-step how to face those issues and craft software that is:
✅ Well-built and documented
✅ Of the highest quality possible
✅ Easy to change, easy to scale
Why I care about architecture (and you should too)
When I first dipped my toes into the programming waters, my projects were a bit all over the place, lacking the solid structure they needed. It was a time of ‘don’t touch that code’ approach, where tweaking one thing could mess up everything.
I knew there had to be a better way, so I dived into learning about software craftsmanship. Slowly but surely, things started to change. I began to understand the importance of well-structured, clean code and how it could make life so much easier.
In the projects that followed, I played around with different structures like MVVM and clean architecture, experimenting to find what worked best. It was a time of learning and discovery, figuring out how to make code that was solid and reliable.
I kept learning and getting better, moving from being a regular coder to a senior one, then to working for myself, and finally becoming a Google Developer Expert (GDE).
Now, I’m the one clients call when they have old, messy projects that need fixing. I dive into the legacy code, untangle the knots, and bring it up to date, making it better and more efficient.
I created The Android Architect to share what I’ve learned and help others avoid the pitfalls I faced. I want to help fellow developers learn the importance of good, clean code and how to achieve it.
I’m here to guide you through the maze of coding, sharing my knowledge and experience to help you learn and grow in the world of Android development.

Why is Architecture on Android important?
Architecture in Android development is the foundation upon which apps are built. It provides a structured approach to app development, ensuring that the code is organized, maintainable, and scalable. A well-defined architecture:
Promotes Code Reusability: By separating concerns and using modular components, developers can reuse code across different parts of the app or even in different projects.
Enhances Maintainability: With a clear architecture, making changes or adding new features becomes simpler. Developers can easily locate and modify specific parts of the code without affecting other unrelated sections.
Improves Testability: A structured architecture allows for easier unit and integration testing. By decoupling components, developers can test individual parts in isolation, ensuring that each component functions as expected.
Facilitates Collaboration: When multiple developers work on a project, having a consistent architecture ensures everyone understands the code structure, making collaboration more efficient.
