I think Creating and Using Providers is pretty much updated:
https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Creating-Content-Providers

Would you like to remove it from the list?

@fanky10 Yes, you are right. Thanks to @AdamMc331 and @princessruthie, the content providers guide can now be removed. Thanks you two!

It will be great to have a guide about Exoplayer.

Hi Guys,
What about Firebase?
Do you guys think that would be interesting to have one article about it?

It will be great to have a guide about Exoplayer.

please let there be an Exoplayer guide

Hey @codepath I have been messing around with exoplayer for a while now. I am not an expert but can Contribute whatever i know, in the spirit of #hacktoberfest. Should I add that that to Video-Playback-and-Recording guide?

oops apologies i didn't find that page so added it in the video player and recording guide, hope that's not a problem as i feel there should be a small instruction on how to use exoplayer there too.

But @nesquena 's link cover in much more detail

@root-ansh No problem at all, thanks for contributing! I moved your guide to a separate page here: https://github.com/codepath/android_guides/wiki/Quickstart-with-Exoplayer and provide links to both.

glad i could help

Hello @codepath-adminstaff,

I appreciate the effort you guys have put in helping other Android Developers in accessing quality content.

I would really like to be part of the contributing team. I will check on which topics I can add to the main android-guides.

Thank you for your consideration.
