4. If you need to teach people Android/iOS… If you need an app written…
5. Things I Didn’t Have Time For: • More about MVVM • Includes: We heard you liked data binding, so we put data binding in your data binding so you can bind while you bind • Two-way data binding
6. Things To Remember: • No <data> section is a legitimate approach • Mr. Binding Mustache: he eats XML attributes, spits out Java property setters & BindingAdapter invocations • Use View Models
