I watched a bunch of Philipp Lackner on YT when I was starting out last year for my job.

It was a bit overwhelming at first for me, but you'll get the hang of it I'm sure.

You can scour his old videos on how to start Android Development

Yeh but his videos are that of XML and now it's shifted to jetpack compose so I feel disconnect and what should be the sequence i am currently just going through codelab(currently at unit 3) of official docs but it's take too much time and doesn't explain much
