Coroutines, Channels, and Flow

  • Explore Kotlin’s first-party approach to writing asynchronous code.

  • Leverage coroutines to efficiently and safely move work between threads.

  • Use Channels to communicate between coroutines.

  • Represent application state using Flows to observe and react to changes in values over time.

Model Architecture

  • Configure your application for dependency injection using Dagger 2 so your application components can get the dependencies they need without unnecessary coupling.

  • Refactor your codebase into the MVVM architecture.

Android Views

  • Create a fully custom list item view to gain as much performance as possible from your UI.

  • Apply a notification style to change how your data is displayed to the user depending on the type of data.

Android Mobile Testing

  • Reap the benefits of dependency injection by easily testing your model layer objects.

  • Test the UI of your application by using the Espresso framework to write your integration tests.

  • Isolate code from local and remote dependencies.

  • Learn Test Driven Development.

  • Utilize automation tools such as Git Hooks and GitHub Actions to verify your code before it is checked in.

Performance Testing

  • Utilize the built-in testing tools to identify performance issues in views that can lead to dropped frames and suboptimal user experience.

  • Identify memory leaks in your application as well as conditions that can lead to high battery drain and unhappy users.

Creating Builds

  • Configure your application to produce different build flavors and identify how these can be used.

  • Prepare your application for release in the Play store by configuring your application, signing it, and learning about the release process.
