Android devices

• Moto G Power 2021 phone (2 of them)
• Moto E4+ phone (2 of them)
• Google Nexus phone (I use it as an alarm clock)
• Lenovo 8" Tab M8 TB-8505F (Hinge Health) Android 9 "Pie" Cortex-A53-2Ghz 2/32GB
• Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8" SM-T387T s/n R52M50MZR8V Android 10 Cortex-A53 4core 1.4GHZ 2/32GB

10" tablet from Patrice, maybe an ASUS? She was going to recycle it. Works perfectly. Something is very wrong with Western Civilization.

Android development

Android Studio

Go

Go language or golang if you prefer

Writing services for Android in Go https://dennisforbes.ca/index.php/2014/03/19/go-golang-and-android/ I think the idea here is that you can replace C native code with GO. See also https://www.reddit.com/r/golang/comments/2kv0s1/go_14_on_android/

So it would be useful currently for example to talk to hardware.

Or maybe it could implement a tile downloader, that is, the network/concurrent part.

Settings

That ellipsis thing (three vertical dots) is called "Settings".

I want my app to show a menu when the user clicks on it, so I have to add a PreferencesActivity. I also need to associate the resources with it to define what shows up.
