Android Revisited

Introduction

Well build an app to send photos to my server and show on Web page. Sound simple but so much has changed.

Day 1 Here to remind me

Android studio installed with copilot. The studio still seems a tad slow compared to VS Code and finding my way around build.gradle.kts is a bit different with the way it manages version numbers.
Found it wanted me to change to SDK 35 but this could not be done without upgrading the android gradle plugin (agp), which is not allowed with my version of studio, 2024.1.1 so had to update the IDE. Sigh. I actually enjoyed how manual all this is. It is the same buzz at likes on twitter.
