Hi, Habr! Schools begin a new school year, colleagues return from vacations, and we are starting a new season of our
podcasts on Android development ! As you know, android developers are divided into two categories: who listens to our podcast and who has not heard of it. This article is just to fill your gaps of unheard-of releases and to attract new listeners, with new comments to our discussions. In the new season we will once again plunge headlong into big topics that require detailed analysis, but we will not forget to keep the listeners informed about the latest news.
But before announcing the topics of the upcoming releases, we will go through the past fourteen, because many of them still do not lose their relevance and are recommended for listening to everyone who cares about developing Android applications.
Podcast releases
First release

')
Release the first. SDK 23. How I picked up the version and did not break anythingIn the very first issue, we discussed the migration of applications to the SDK 23 for a long time and persistently to support the work on Android Marsmallow.

We talked closely about modern architectural solutions. MVP, as it is in life, in large and small projects. How DI, Rx will help us. Which DB is now in vogue.

Gitflow, CI, QA, which write UI Tests, and other abbreviationsGathering together with team leaders and CTOs of different mobile development teams, we walked through the processes. We shared the experience of adapting gitflow to the realities of dynamic mobile application development. We built the most convenient Continuous Integration server. Walked through the Continuous Delivery and even Continuous Translations. And we launched on it all the tests that can only be done to constantly check our code.






Fourth release
Tests The whole truth firsthandVery entertaining conversation about testing, very useful both for beginners and those who think that he is already doing well with the tests in his projects. We talked about all aspects of testing in Android. And, most importantly, we said that TDD is not just possible, but it is mandatory in modern mobile development!




Fifth release

The participants of the issue are experienced reactants, who have not only the full implementation of the approach in mobile projects, but also their own reactive libraries.





Sixth edition
Android N Review and 33 Developer TipsDuring the recording of the project, it seemed to me that the DI theme was exhausted, but even so, at the request of the listeners, we are preparing a large and comprehensive release about Dagger and other frameworks for DI on Android.
And in this issue, we changed the emphasis and decided to discuss the immediate.
In addition, there was a preview of Android N, and this is a reason for a big conversation. In the second half of the issue, we criticized and corrected
an article about 33 tips from the Android developer to other developers .




Seventh edition
Kotlin. Is he ready for production developmentThis release turned out to be the most popular in the first season, and this is not surprising, since so many people are interested in developing this easy-to-use and convenient language.

“I am very pleased with each of our 14 episodes and I want to thank each of the podcast participants, and especially their families, who were indulgent of our midnight recordings. But first of all, I am grateful to our listeners, for whom we are going to discuss the new topics of the podcast every two weeks. ” - Presenter podcast nekdenis

You are required to write in the comments what pleases you most about mobile development and what you would like to change in the development for Android. The authors of the most, in our (podcasting) opinion of the comments, are waited for by a free invite on DroidCon, and if the comment proves to be the most technically deep and reasonable, we will be happy to invite one of our releases to be recorded.
