Consuming Github API

It is a small app that will list the most starred Github repos that were created in the last 30 days. You'll be fetching the sorted JSON data directly from the Github API.

Introduction

This is my submission to the Hidden Founders Mobile Coding Challenge.

Getting Started

This sample uses the Gradle build system. To build this project, use the "gradlew build" command or use "Import Project" in Android Studio.

libraries

1. Retrofit2 The library provides a powerful framework for authenticating and interacting with APIs and sending network requests with OkHttp. This library makes downloading JSON or XML data from a web API fairly straightforward. Once the data is downloaded then it is parsed into a Plain Old Java Object (POJO) which must be defined for each "resource" in the response.

2. Picasso Picasso is - simply - a central part of any Android app whatsoever. Thank goodness, it is one line of code - no setup, nothing. the only thing "better than" Picasso is if you move to Volley but I already use retrofit.
