Birth, Life and Death, or What Happens to an App in the System
summary
An overview of how Android manages application lifecycle and process behavior: how the system boots and starts apps, which system components and methods are invoked when app components start, how permission requests are routed and decided, and the ways and reasons an app process gets killed (including self-termination). The talk focuses on Android internals and mechanisms developers should understand to make app behavior more predictable.
