These technologies include but are not limited to Android, Web Technologies (such as Angular, Firebase, Polymer, etc.), Cloud Platform (including Google Cloud Platform, Firebase, Kubernetes, etc.), Machine Learning, Google Assistant, and more.

Being recognized as a Google Developer Expert comes with benefits such as access to Google's resources and early access to new technologies, opportunities to collaborate with Google product teams, invitations to exclusive events, and visibility within the developer community.

The program aims to foster a network of experts who can help developers worldwide by sharing their knowledge and experience with Google technologies.
