Just some background I developed a couple android apps in undergrad the old way with java. I got my first career in basic backend but then switched to cloud and microservices development which is a nightmare of complexity. I’ve been learning modern android as a hobby with kotlin and jetpack compose and it seems a lot simpler as you don’t have to worry about a hundred cloud services, docker, kubernetes, and a host of other topics.
