This tutorial guides developers through the process of creating and distributing an Android library, whether publicly or privately. It begins by walking readers through creating a sample project to test their library, then moves on to setting up an Android library module within this project. The tutorial explains how to make the library useful, including creating classes for logging and testing them in the sample app. Once the library is ready, it discusses enabling Proguard to obfuscate the code and keeping public interfaces away from obfuscation. It also covers choosing a repository manager, downloading and running it, setting it up, configuring the library, deploying the first version of the library, and hosting it privately if desired. Throughout the tutorial, readers are provided with step-by-step instructions and examples to follow along.
