Challenge: Find the dependency
(upbeat music) - [Instructor] Hey folks, it's time for a challenge. Now that you have an understanding of Gradle and Android dependencies, let's put your new found powers to use by exploring a few popular open source libraries. In this challenge, I'd like you to perform an internet search for the following libraries, Timber, which handles logging on Android, Picasso used for image loading and Retrofit, a networking library. Write down how you would include these dependencies in your apps build.gradle file. If you find yourself struggling, refer back to the previous lesson where I covered using dependencies. Either way, make sure you watch the solution video where I'll provide a detailed explanation of how to add these libraries to your app.
