2,289 PointsI am currently taking the Android Development track here at Treehouse, and I was not expected to know anything about coding to start the first course. Ben did an awesome job explaining everything I needed with Java and XML.

It's probably best to now start off with the Java courses so that you can understand the basics of what is happening in the code as, like others have said, Android uses Java as the main programming language.
Also, Ben and Craig do a great job at explaining everything you need to know so, you should have no problems! If you do though, go ahead and let us know on the forums! There's plenty of us here to help explain anything you don't understand :)

1,968 PointsJava would be nice to learn a bit before hand but also html would be good to review (and its easy) because the xml format is very similar to html.
