Hi, Lara, nice to meet you. I really liked your article! I can relate a lot to your journey since I'm also a woman working a full time job, studying Android development on my free time.

I'm in the middle of Udacity's Android Basics Nanodegree and plan on then enrolling in the Android Developer Nanodegree. How did you find it? Is it still something you would recommend even if it doesn't include (as of yet) anything on Android Jetpack and components?

I ask this because I don't really understand what this Jetpack thing is, I've just vaguely read about it. I don't get how much it affects current Android development and if it makes the current content in the Android Developer Nanodegree outdated or not useful anymore.

I really have completely loved Udacity so far and would love to keep studying there! I just want to make sure that the ADND is still a great choice. I also understand that I could complement the nanodegree with other material related to Android Jetpack, if I actually need to. (I don't really know if I do).

Thanks for inspiring and motivating me with your story :), I hope you can give me a hand with my confussion!
