Yes, this project uses RetroFit1...but you are attempting to use RetroFit2 where the API has been completely revamped.

For your learning purposes....i would recommend downgrading to Retrofit1 by updating your build.gradle to:

compile 'com.squareup.retrofit:retrofit:1.9.0'

Then when you complete the project and have an understanding how RetroFit works....then look into updating your project to the latest retrofit.
