Do you want to build a location based mobile application? Do you read technical books and feel that they left some parts out? Do you want to get into mobile programming with "real world" examples? If you answered yes to one of these questions this book might be for you! The goal of this book is to teach via familiarity. Since the Uber application is well designed and familiar we chose it as the target but the book isn't meant as a "copy Uber" cookbook. Many applications are built around ideas similar to Uber and utilize designs inspired by Uber. It's our assumption that you can learn a lot by understanding how to build something "like" Uber. We break down a real world application from client to the server. This fills in all the pieces, that typical tech books skim over. This book covers: iOS/Android development with Codename One Spring Boot server development on top of MySQL WebSockets, WebServices and push notification as the communication layer Creating a sublime UI to match professional designs Map based user interface User authorization via SMS/Social Networks Best practices, security and pitfalls of mobile development The book requires basic knowledge of Java but doesn't require prior knowledge of Codename One, Spring Boot or MySQL. Notice that this book is "code heavy", it contains many listings as it implements a full stack mobile app. Uber (TM) is a trademark of Uber Technologies Inc. This work is intended strictly for educational purposes. We don't condone the misuse of Uber IP! About the Author: Shai's professional software development career started more than 25 years ago. He worked for/with countless companies including Sun Microsystems, Oracle, Samsung, Nokia as well as banks, insurance companies etc. Shai was a team member on the original Wireless Toolkit from Sun Microsystems. It was the most popular cross platform mobile development tool at the time, and revolutionized the field. Together with Chen Fishbein they created LWUIT which became the most successful mobile open source project from Sun Microsystems and the basis for Codename One. Shai is a Java One rockstar who shared the stage with the likes of James Gosling. As a highly rated speaker he was featured in multiple conferences such as JavaZone, codemotion, dev days etc. He blogs at Codename One as well as Hackernoon, JavaCodeGeeks and dzone (MVB).

This book covers Android app design fundamentals in Android Studio using Java programming language.The author assumes you have no experience in app development. The book starts with the installation of the required development environment and setting up the emulators. Then, the simplest "Hello World" app is developed step by step. In the next chapter, basics of the Java programming language are given with practical examples. Screenshots and code snippets are clearly given in the book to guide the reader. After the Java lecture, 6 complete Android apps are developed again by step by step instructions.Each code line is explained. As the reader follows the development of the example apps, he/she will learn designing user interfaces, connecting interface objects to code, developing efficient Java code and testing the app on emulators and real devices.The sample apps developed in this book are as follows:1. Headlight app: Learn the basics of app development and use buttons in your code.2. Body mass index (BMI) calculator app: Using input boxes, performing calculations and displaying the results on the screen.3. Simple dice roller app: Using random number generator functions, including images in your project, displaying images on the screen and changing the displayed image programmatically.4. The compass app: Accessing the magnetic field sensor, setting required permissions, extracting the direction angle and animating a compass figure.5. Show my location app: Creating a map project, setting required permissions, accessing GPS device and showing real time location on the map.6. S.O.S. sender app: Adding SMS functionality, setting required permissions and sending real time location using SMS.This book includes 146 figures and 114 code snippets that are used to explain app development concepts clearly.
