How is the Android Studio tutorial for beginners?
Android Studio is just an IDE. It’s a tool that developers use to do the coding. Well for Android development, Android Studio is pretty much the official IDE. But it is still just an IDE.
What you need to concentrate on are coding itself and the platform. I mean Android OS as a framework programming languages like Java and Kotlin (at least in the beginning) and then move on to more advanced stuff like jetPack and other stuff.
So to give you an analogy, if you want to learn cooking, you don’t stress too much about how to use utensils, knives, spoons.
They are important, but they are just tools a.k.a IDE. What’s more important is cooking itself, ingredients (platform and programming language).
I hope I have been able to distinguish between Android Studio and Android development.
As you get started with coding, you will automatically pick up things on Android Studio. So don’t worry about that.
