We'll begin by covering the basics of digital analytics focusing on an app that is live in the App Store and Google Play Store as an example. You'll then explore the app's actual usage data using the Firebase console. After that, you'll learn how easy it is to add Firebase Analytics to an app and quickly gain insights. Finally, you'll learn how to use Firebase Crash Reporting, Firebase Remote Config, and Firebase Dynamic Links integrated with Firebase Analytics to improve your app and grow your user base.
By the end of this course you'll have an app that records how users interact with it, and you'll know how use that data to improve performance. You'll have the foundation needed to apply Firebase Analytics to your own apps.
Firebase Analytics is an analytics solution to help you gain insights on what users are doing with your app. It gives you many different reports and filters to help you understand how your app is progressing toward your goals. Best of all, it's free!
If you are an iOS/Android developer who wants to get more people to use your app, this course is for you! If you have a great idea for an app, this course can help you map out your goals so you can expand your user base using targeted strategies.

Law

This seven-week course will explore the relationship between law and technology with a strong focus on the law of the United States with some comparisons to laws around the world, especially in Europe. Tech progress is an important source of economic growth and raises broader questions about the human condition, including how culture evolves and who controls that evolution. Technology also matters in countless other ways as it often establishes the framework in which governments interact with their citizens, both in allowing speech and blocking it and in establishing exactly what the boundaries are between private life and the government. And technology itself is powerfully shaped by the laws that apply in areas as diverse as copyright, antitrust, patents, privacy, speech law and the regulation of networks.
