 ABSTRACT

APP DEVELOPMENT is the main objective of this internship. It involves designing, building,
and deploying software programs for various platforms, including mobile devices, desktops, and the
web. In mobile app development, platforms like Android and iOS dominate, each requiring distinct
tools and technologies such as Android Studio with Java/Kotlin or Xcode with Swift/Objective-C. The
process begins with ideation and user-centric design, focusing on functionality, aesthetics, and ease of
use. Developers utilize frameworks, APIs, and libraries to integrate features like authentication,
databases, notifications, and multimedia capabilities. Agile development practices, including iterative
testing and refinement, ensure the app meets user needs and quality standards.

A crucial aspect of modern app development is cross-platform compatibility, achieved through

technologies like Flutter and React Native, which streamline code reuse across platforms. Security,
scalability, and performance optimization are critical considerations to ensure reliability and user trust.
With the proliferation of smart devices and cloud services, app development continues to evolve,
enabling applications to provide seamless, innovative experiences across diverse ecosystems.

The internship program not only focused on technical skills but also emphasized the
importance of soft skills, such as problem-solving, teamwork, and effective communication. By
collaborating with experienced developers and participating in code reviews, interns received valuable
feedback that contributed to their professional growth. Overall, this program has successfully fostered
a deeper understanding of Android development, enabling interns to gain essential skills and
knowledge necessary for a successful career in the fast-paced and evolving field of App development.

 CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION

This reportoutlines the experiences and skills gained during an internship as a App
Development Intern at Lets’s Gametech in Coimbatore. Overthe course of the training, close
collaboration with a team of professionals provided insights into a dynamic and collaborative
software development environment. The primary assignment involved creating an Android
Appfor a project named "The Age Calculator", offering an opportunity to apply and enhance
skills in Android Development and Java.

1.2 IntroductionToAndroid
Android is an open source and Linux-based Operating System for mobile devices such as
smartphones and tablet computers. Android was developed by the Open Handset Alliance, led by
Google, and other companies.

Android offers a unified approach to application development for mobile devices which
means developers need only develop for Android, and their applications should be able to run on
different devices powered by Android.

Android has come a long way from its humble beginnings, as the product of a small start
up, all the way to becoming the leading mobile operating system worldwide. Google’s
introduction of ProjectTreble in Android Oreo should make it easier for phone makers to update
their devices faster.

One challenge for Android device owners that has been an issue for the OS ever since it
launched is updating it with the latest security patches, for major feature updates. Google’s
supported Nexus and Pixel devices consistently receive regular monthly security updates, and the
latest version of the OS

1.3 Introduction To Android Studio

Android Studio is the official Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for android
application development. Android Studio provides more features that enhance our productivity
while building Android apps.
Android Studio was announced on 16th May 2013 at the Google I/O conference as an
official IDE for Android app development. It started its early access preview from version 0.1
in May 2013. The first stable built version was released in December 2014, starts from
version 1.0.
Since 7th May 2019, Kotlin is Google's preferred language for Android application
development. Besides this, other programming languages are supported by Android Studio.

Android Studio Project Structure

The Android Studio project contains one or more modules with resource files and source
code files. These include different types of modules are Android App modules, Library modules,
and Google App Engine module

3.2 JAVA

Introduction To Java

 Java is a class-based, object-oriented programming language that is designed to have as

few implementation dependencies as possible.
 It is intended to let application developers Write Once and Run Anywhere (WORA),
meaning that compiled Java code can run on all platforms that support Java without the
need for recompilation.
 Java was developed by James Gosling at Sun Microsystems Inc. in May 1995 and later
acquired by Oracle Corporation and is widely used for developing applications for
desktop, web, and mobile devices.
 Java is known for its simplicity, robustness, and security features, making it a popular
choice for enterprise-level applications.
 Java applications are compiled to byte code that can run on any Java Virtual Machine.
The syntax of Java is similar to C/C++.
 Java makes writing, compiling, and debugging programming easy. It helps to create
reusable code and modular programs.

Java is used in Android App development

1. App Logic: Defines behavior in Activities, Fragments, and app flow.

2. UI Management: Handles UI elements (Views, Buttons, TextFields) and user

interactions.

3. Lifecycle Management: Manages the lifecycle of Activities and Fragments (e.g.,

onCreate, onPause).

4. Networking: Communicates with APIs and web services using HTTP requests (via
libraries like Retrofit, OkHttp).

5. Data Storage: Handles local data storage using SQLite, SharedPreferences, and
ContentProviders.

6. Background Services: Manages background tasks and services (e.g., sync,

notifications).

7. Google Services: Integrates with Google APIs (Maps, Firebase, Play Services).

8. Custom Views: Creates custom UI components and animations.

9. Multi-threading: Performs tasks in the background without blocking the UI (using

Threads, AsyncTask).

10. Error Handling: Manages exceptions and logs errors for debugging.

3.3 DEVELOPMENT STEPS:

Steps to Create an Age Calculation App

Step 1: Creating a new project

 Open a new project.
 We will be working on Empty Activity with language as Java. Leave all other
options unchanged.
 You can change the name of the project at your convenience.
 There will be two default files named activity_main.xml and
MainActivity.java.

Step 2: Navigate to Build scripts > build.gradle(module) file and add the
following dependency to it

 implementation 'joda-time:joda-time:2.9.1'

Step 3: Working with the activity_main.xml file

 Button 1: to pick the first date user wants to enter.

 Button 2: to pick the second date user wants to enter.
 Button 3: to perform the calculation
 TextView: to show the final output(age).

Step 4: Working with MainActivity.java file

 In MainActivity.java file “onClickListener” is used on buttons to pick the date

and to perform the calculation.

CONCLUTION

My internship experience in app development has been both enriching and insightful,
providing me with a comprehensive understanding of the entire app development lifecycle.
From initial planning and design to coding, testing, and deployment, I gained hands-on
experience in the technical and collaborative aspects of building a functional mobile
application.

Throughout the internship, I was able to apply theoretical knowledge in real-world

scenarios, working with modern tools and technologies like [mention any specific
technologies/tools used, e.g., Swift, Java, React Native, Firebase]. This practical exposure
enhanced my problem-solving skills and deepened my understanding of user-centered design,
performance optimization, and debugging techniques.

Additionally, working closely with a team of developers, designers, and project

managers allowed me to appreciate the importance of collaboration, clear communication,
and agile development practices in delivering successful app projects. I also learned how to
effectively address challenges such as app performance, user feedback integration, and cross-
platform compatibility.

Overall, this internship has not only improved my technical skills but also prepared
me for future roles in app development by providing a well-rounded perspective on the
industry. I now feel more confident in my ability to contribute to app development projects
and am excited about pursuing further opportunities in this field.
