Tech Stack

  • Retrofit– is a type-safe REST client for Android, Java and Kotlin, built as a powerful framework for consuming APIs

  • Kotlin – Kotlin is a cross-platform, statically typed, general-purpose programming language with type inference. Kotlin is designed to interoperate fully with Java, and the JVM version of Kotlin’s standard library depends on the Java Class Library, but type inference allows its syntax to be more concise

  • Jetpack Compose – Android’s modern toolkit for building native UI. It simplifies and accelerates UI development on Android

  • Room – a persistence library provides an abstraction layer over SQLite for cache

  • Dagger-Hilt– a dependency injection library for Android that reduces the boilerplate of doing manual dependency injection in your project

  • Coroutines – a concurrency design pattern that you can use on Android to simplify code that executes asynchronously

  • Flow– In coroutines, a flow is a type that can emit multiple values sequentially, as opposed to suspend functions that return only a single value.

  • LiveData – A lifecycle-aware data holder with the observer pattern

  • View Model– store and manage UI-related data in a lifecycle conscious way.

  • Lifecycle – Perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.

  • Coil – Image Loader library.
