For an Android based app, with little to no Java experience I would highly recommend starting with the Java track and then move into the Android Development track. For iOS I hear the iOS Development in Swift track is really good.

Ken, Does these track show how to connect your apps to the internet and build playlist?

I have not gotten into the iOS tracks on Treehouse so I cannot directly speak to that information.

The Android track does cover connecting to the Internet but to the best of my knowledge there is not coverage on integrating audio or video files into an Android app. It does, however, provide some great base knowledge on application development at which point I would imagine that one could integrate components of the Android multimedia framework into an application to produce an audio streaming type of app. I would guess there are even online tutorials just on that subject.

Ken,

Okay then I guess my best bet is to start with the java development track. If i need anymore help i'll surely make you know. Thanks for everything
