Not sure what your learning style is but Google's own Fundamentals course has always helped me: https://codelabs.developers.google.com/android-kotlin-fundamentals/

Thanks

The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development is a great resource. It's very thorough, the author keeps it updated as new Android versions come out, and he's also active both in this slack and on stackoverflow. It's a little more fun to read than pure technical docs too, with little touches of humor here and there. https://commonsware.com/Android/

Thanks for the shout-out! FYI, that specific book is now frozen in time (4000+ pages of pre-Jetpack/pre-Kotlin material). But, subscribers get all my books, not just that one. Elements of Android Jetpack has paired samples to show both Java and Kotlin. The rest of my Elements series, plus Exploring Android, are all Kotlin.

Oops, I forgot it was frozen – nonetheless, all of your content is fantastic! Many thanks.
