The Unexpected History of Android
 |
Description
Book Introduction
We were there during the dynamic moment when the mobile world was born.
Chet Haas, the face of Android development, tells the irreplaceable story.
Android was a company founded by two guys who wanted to make camera software.
However, they failed to attract investors' attention.
Today, Android is a fairly large team within Google, shipping its operating system on over 3 billion devices worldwide.
How did all this happen?
People often simply summarize Android as a successful product that imitated the features of existing smartphones and made modest improvements, backed by Google's massive capital.
But the reality is different.
It was the collective experience of the team that transformed Android from a small, secret project known only to a select few within Google into a global platform.
The story of Android's success, surpassing established global IT companies like BlackBerry, Nokia, and Microsoft, begins with a comprehensive look at the history of the people who worked on the team, long before the startup itself.
Hear from team members about the project's journey from its humble but ambitious beginnings to its transformation into a game-changer in the mobile world.
