The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development, Murphy M.L., 2016.

Android, the next-generation open mobile platform from Google and the Open Handset Alliance, is poised to become a significant player in the mobile device market. The Android platform gives developers a fair bit of control while still supporting a familiar programming language. However, the frameworks, GUI widgets, and development model is different than any other mobile platform out there. That's where this book comes in. Spanning 466 pages, The Busy Coder's Guide to Android Development covers a wide range of Android capabilities and APIs, from creating simple user interfaces, to supporting long-running background processes, through the advanced location tracking and mapping features. Along the way, it covers how to embed the WebKit Web browser in your application, how to have your application use data from other installed applications (and vice versa!) or off the Internet, and how to integrate with the built-in on-device search engine. It will help you more quickly climb the Android learning curve, so you can create the "killer app" you've dreamed of...or perhaps just a quick-and-dirty application for you and your friends.




Role of WebView.
If your HTML is fairly limited in scope, such as what you might find in the body of a status update on Twitter, you can use the static fromHtml() method on the Html utility class to parse an HTML-formatted string into something that you can put into a TextView. TextView can render simple formatting like styles (bold, italic, etc.), font faces (serif, sans serif, etc.), colors, links, and so forth. However, sometimes your needs for HTML transcend what TextView can handle. You will not be browsing Facebook using TextView, for example. In those cases, WebView will be the more appropriate widget, as it can handle a much wider range of HTML tags. WebView can also handle CSS and JavaScript, which Html.fromHtml() would simply ignore. WebView can also assist you with common “browsing” metaphors, such as history list of visited URLs to support backwards and forwards navigation.
