I'm a fairly new to developing. Really new. Actually, I'm taking my first class in-school this year on how to program for Windows. However I'm only 4 weeks into it so I know only the very basics. Variables, Primitives and a few other things. But that's a separate story (but still helps you understand where I come from).
Anyways, I finally got Eclipse and the SDK working together and I have been going through some of the tutorials on developing for Androids. I think I'm mostly lost because I barely understand any of the concepts told. I do have some questions though that may help me if answered. 1. Since this is open source, can I find XML that has already been created and just tweak a few settings to fit my needs? Can these just be found on the Android Developer site? 2. How am I supposed to find the code I'm looking for? I understand there is packages and classes but it is overwhelming on how much there is and where to go when I get an error. 3. I feel like the tutorials teach me nothing because all I'm really doing is pasting code that they already made. Is this really the best way to learn? 4. I'm thinking of making an app like the Car Dock but with my own shortcuts. Can you create shortcuts to other apps using XML? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
