This chapter was a rather interactive one. First we showed you how to add, define, change, and adjust a theme in Android. Then we submerged into Android styles and assets. In this chapter, we also adopted some custom fonts and coloring. In the end, we made some seriously beautiful buttons and swift animations. In the next chapter, you will start learning about the system part of the Android Framework. We will start with permissions.

Overview of this book
Kotlin is a programming language intended to be a better Java, and it's designed to be usable and readable across large teams with different levels of knowledge. As a language, it helps developers build amazing Android applications in an easy and effective way.
This book begins by giving you a strong grasp of Kotlin's features in the context of Android development and its APIs. Moving on, you'll take steps towards building stunning applications for Android. The book will show you how to set up the environment, and the difficulty level will grow steadily with the applications covered in the upcoming chapters.
Later on, the book will introduce you to the Android Studio IDE, which plays an integral role in Android development. We'll use Kotlin's basic programming concepts such as functions, lambdas, properties, object-oriented code, safety aspects, type parameterization, testing, and concurrency, which will guide you through writing Kotlin code in production. We'll also show you how to integrate Kotlin
into any existing Android project.
