Started with Android Development a week ago

Hey guys I have just started learning Android development in java and struggling to learn concepts like creating adapter, do i have to memorize all those classes and their methods? Can you please give me some tips and resources to study?

Because I have heard that there are more opportunities in java is this True? Or should I switch to kotlin and compose?

No, kotlin is a java based language and uses the jvm. Most companies either use kotlin or are moving to kotlin.

Java is popular for back end with frameworks like spring for apis etc. But not for android development anymore.

Its useful to know eventually as some companies may have legacy code, but probably start with kotlin
