Libraries Used

• Architecture - Start with classes for managing your UI component lifecycle and handling data persistence.

  • lifecycle - As a user navigates through, out of, and back to your app, the Activity instances in your app transition through different states in their lifecycle.
  • ViewModel - Easily schedule asynchronous tasks for optimal execution.
  • livedata - is an observable data holder class. Unlike a regular observable, LiveData is lifecycle-aware, meaning it respects the lifecycle of other app components, such as activities, fragments, or services.
  • Coroutines - A coroutine is a concurrency design pattern that you can use on Android to simplify code that executes asynchronously.

• UI - Details on why and how to use UI Components in your apps - together or separate

  • Layout - Lay out widgets using different algorithms.

• Third party and miscellaneous libraries

  • Retrofit for turns your HTTP API into a Java interface
  • Glide for image loading framework for Android that wraps media decoding, memory and disk caching, and resource pooling into a simple and easy to use interface.
  • Paging The Paging library helps you load and display pages of data from a larger dataset from local storage or over network.
  • Hilt Hilt is a dependency injection library for Android that reduces the boilerplate of doing manual dependency injection in your project.
