The Highway That Trains Androiders and Where We Landed After Real-World Battles
summary
A company reskilling program converted two web engineers to Android developers through a three-month course: a two-week bootstrap (about 100 hours across 8 codelabs), a two-week scratch app, then team work rewriting the Hatena Blog Android app. They built and shipped a Kotlin + Jetpack Compose (Material3) app using Hilt, Retrofit, Coil, Jetpack Navigation, KSP, Firebase Firestore and OIDC auth; graduates now maintain and lead mobile teams.
