Summary

After this chapter, the reader should have a more accurate idea of the different areas we will explore together in this book. We also hope our arguments are convincing enough, and we will work towards developing them further throughout the entire book.

The reader should be able to argue why performance will matter in the context of his/her organization, and should know some of the keywords of efficient Android development. Do not get stressed, this is only the beginning.
