Keep reading to hear more about our new course from course instructor Aldo Olivares:

Why should I take your course: Publish to the Google Play Store?

"Developing apps is a lot of fun, but it's even more fun to share your creations with everyone!

In this course, you'll learn how to publish your app to the Google Play Store, which will make it available to more than a billion users around the world.

Along the way, you'll learn how to create a store listing, build a release-ready APK, create alpha and beta releases of your app, and discover all the requirements your app should meet before releasing it on the Play Store!"

How can this course help with a common pain point in Android development?

"Releasing an app to the Play Store is something that most developers will have to do at some point in their career. Just like anything else, this process comes with its own particular details and quirks that need to be learned.

Even if you don't want to release your app to the general public, you should strongly consider uploading your app to the Play Store as a closed release and invite your friends to try it. This can help you find bugs in your code and get people excited about your new project!"

Can you please share a cool tip with us about publishing to the Google Play Store?

"It is always a good idea to have a developer profile page on the play store to showcase your apps!

If you ever want to apply for a job as a mobile developer, you can use the profile page as a portfolio so potential recruiters or employers can see all the apps that you've created so far."

Is there anything else we should know about your course?

"Remember that you can create different kinds of releases on the Play Store depending on your specific needs.

Production releases will make your app available to the entire world, or at least, the countries that you have targeted.

Internal and closed releases are useful if you want to share an app with your team for debugging or testing. You can create more than one closed release at the same time if you need to.

Open releases can include a much bigger audience that the internal and closed releases. This is usually the final stage before your app is released to production."
