I used Clean Architecture, MVI Architecture, Coroutines, Jetpack Compose, and Koin in the sample project.
Briefly introduce your project and its goals.
Model-View-Intent (MVI) is an architectural pattern that separates concerns in Android app development. It emphasizes a unidirectional data flow and immutable states.
- Model: Represents the current state of the application.
- View: Renders the UI based on the model's state.
- Intent: Represents user actions or events that trigger state changes.
Provide a detailed explanation of how MVI is implemented in your project. Discuss the benefits and rationale behind choosing this architecture.
Clean Architecture is a design philosophy that separates concerns into distinct layers, making the codebase scalable, maintainable, and testable.
- Entities: Contain enterprise-wide business rules.
- Use Cases: Contain application-specific business rules.
- Interface Adapters: Convert data between the use cases and entities.
- Frameworks & Drivers: Implement external frameworks and tools.
Explain how Clean Architecture is integrated into your project, and discuss the advantages it provides in terms of scalability and maintainability.
Coroutines are a lightweight concurrency design pattern in Kotlin for managing asynchronous tasks.
- Coroutine Scope: Defines the lifespan of a coroutine.
- Suspending Functions: Functions that can be paused and resumed.
- Dispatchers: Define the thread or threads a coroutine runs on.
Discuss how coroutines are used in your project for asynchronous operations, and highlight any specific use cases.
Jetpack Compose is a modern UI toolkit for building native Android applications.
- Declarative UI: Define the UI based on the current state of the application.
- Compose Functions: Build UI components using Kotlin functions.
- State Management: Manage UI state efficiently.
Explain how Jetpack Compose is leveraged to build the UI in your project. Provide examples of declarative UI and state management.
Koin is a lightweight dependency injection framework for Kotlin.
- Modules: Define how dependencies are provided.
- Scopes: Manage the lifespan of dependencies.
