Antonio Leiva

Antonio Leiva is a software developer and author specializing in Android development.

He wrote Kotlin for Android Developers to introduce Kotlin programming in the context of Android app creation.

Leiva's approach focuses on practical, hands-on learning, demonstrating Kotlin's advantages over Java 7 for Android development.

His book covers essential components of real-world Android apps, including UI, REST, database interactions, and testing.

Leiva's work aims to bridge the gap between traditional Java-based Android development and the more modern Kotlin approach.

Despite some criticism of the book's organization, Leiva's expertise in both Kotlin and Android development is evident throughout the text.
