## Source excerpt

About Android Essence Android Essence was first launched on September 2, 2015 by Adam McNeilly. It started off with Adam just wanting to share everything he'd learned about Android development with the community. You can find all sorts of historical context from these posts, like understanding a RecyclerView vs ListView, or even working with a navigation drawer (what a throwback). The problem is that there wasn't always a rhyme or reason to the posts.
