Google Cloud for Student Developers: G Suite APIs (intro & overview)
Blog post from Google Cloud
Google Cloud has launched a YouTube video series called "Google Cloud for Student Developers," aimed at helping student developers, particularly those in STEM fields, gain practical skills using industry APIs, which are valuable for career readiness. The series focuses on Google Cloud's two main product groups: Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and G Suite. While GCP is typically associated with developers, G Suite applications like Gmail, Google Drive, and Calendar also offer developer APIs that are less well-known. The series begins with a five-episode mini-series on coding with G Suite, introducing the G Suite developer landscape and covering RESTful APIs and Google Apps Script, a serverless environment for automating and extending G Suite app functionality. Future episodes will explore these tools in more depth and demonstrate how to build full-fledged apps, with upcoming content also set to focus on GCP developer tools.
