Course Overview
Learn to parse Json data into your android application by using third party libraries such as retrofit ,okhttp,and gson.
Parsing Json data from a web API into an Android Application, is a critical skill to have as an Android Developer. In this course, you will learn how to do just that by using advanced third party libraries. You as the student will build one app with the instructor that will demonstrate effective communication with a web client API.
This course is a relatively short one making it is perfect for quickly improving your development capabilities. In addition to learning about parsing Json data, you also learn an effective way of organizing your Android apps by using an event bus. Further, you get the instructors knowledge on any and all Android related questions regarding this course or not.

The goal of this course was to parse Json faster. It seems like a crazy amount of work just to get some basic Json information into an application. I actually did something similar with the basic Async task and it was a lot more simple. Other than that, instructor does not explain what he does, it seems like he just recorded something he writes for himself. Also, strnage mistakes like "sterization" or something like that, when it was Serialization.

It's perfect Coarse if you don't have a good experience using important external libraries which is used to build real applications.

This course is straight forward. It teaches you all the basic aspects of using serialized JSON library using GSON along side a quick Retrofit & Otto review. I recommend it for people who want to know the basic hands on. The instructor is very good and built this course very well. However. If you want to lean actual parsing this course is not for you as it uses GSON for serializing/deserializing. So basically in respect to JSON there isn't much here except learning to model your data class.
