Part 2: Displaying Network Calls

In this part, we will look at how we can integrate popular libraries and frameworks used for building Android apps. We will start with libraries used to fetch and process data from the internet, then continue with the RecyclerView library used for rendering lists.

Next, we will look at how we can handle permissions and use Google Maps, followed by performing tasks in the background with Services and WorkManager, and then displaying notifications to the user. Finally, we will look at Jetpack Compose and how we can use it to simplify the creation of user interfaces.

We will cover the following chapters in this section:

• Chapter 5, Essential Libraries: Retrofit, Moshi, and Glide
• Chapter 6, Adding and Interacting with RecyclerView
• Chapter 7, Android Permissions and Google Maps
• Chapter 8, Services, WorkManager, and Notifications
• Chapter 9, Building User Interfaces Using Jetpack Compose
