Learning Android Programming Through MIT App Inventor 2

To me, the most difficult part in doing Android programming is in knowing details such as which libraries to be included, which functions to be invoked, what parameters to pass, etc..

While searching for ways to solve my problem, I came across a video called "Convert App Inventor to Java" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqNTc4DVYW8). I found that the way Derek converted his App. made with App. Inventor into Java seemed like a good solution.

This is a quick summary of how I created an App. using App Inventor 2 and re-wrote it in Java using Android Studio 2.2.

The App. that I made using App Inventor 2 is a very simple App. that plays back a song whenever I click on the picture on the screen. The detail on how to build this App. can be found at http://www.appinventor.org/content/CourseInABox/Intro/courseinabox.

The MIT App Inventor 2 is available for free at http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/.
