Welcome to Code Park

Currently my line of work is working with infotainment systems in vehicles. The system is very complex and I wonder if having side projects of mobile development will help me understanding automotive OS. For example, my company is creating an infotainment completely from scratch, and we are using Android Automotive 11. If my understanding is…

This is the last month of the course, the semester, the calendar year, and the program. I will say this class is top 3 of those courses that I will remember as really challenging me to the core. The stress of learning new concepts, re-learning old ones from a long time ago, not wanting to…
