About the Book

This is Part 2 of the Manifest Android Interview full edition, covering only Jetpack Compose. If you want Android framework knowledge (Android frameworks, Jetpack libraries, business logics, etc.), be sure to check out Part 1: Android or the Full Edition for complete coverage.

Manifest Android Interview presents practical challenges framed as questions and offers a structured roadmap for learning and refreshing Android and Jetpack Compose knowledge. It’s designed to benefit developers at every level, from juniors building a foundation to seniors exploring internal APIs and advanced concepts.

The content spans the core Android framework, UI architecture, Jetpack libraries, and business logic, while also giving significant attention to Jetpack Compose, from fundamentals and runtime behavior to UI composition and design practices. This balance ensures that you strengthen your knowledge of both classic Android and modern declarative development.

Every question is followed by a step-by-step walkthrough that not only explains how to solve it but also explores why the solution works. To simulate real hiring conditions, many sections end with follow-up challenges that mirror on-site interview tasks, helping you practice deeper problem-solving and technical reasoning.

To support continuous growth, the book includes curated references and additional resources so you can keep exploring beyond its pages. Complex or less common terms are explained with accessible footnotes, making advanced material approachable for newcomers while offering fresh insights to seasoned developers.

The "Pro Tips for Mastery" chapters go beneath the surface, covering internal API design, performance trade-offs, and architectural decisions that matter in real-world projects. Senior engineers will find thought-provoking details to sharpen their expertise, while mid-level developers gain a toolkit for leveling up their Android skills and building a stronger analytical mindset.

Whether you’re preparing for an interview, transitioning to Compose, or simply deepening your Android expertise, this book challenges you to go beyond memorizing APIs. Learn to reason about design choices, experiment with different solutions, and approach Android development with clarity, curiosity, and confidence.
