Android/Kotlin codebase containing real world examples (CRUD, auth, advanced patterns, etc) that adheres to the RealWorld spec and API.
This codebase was created to demonstrate a fully fledged fullstack application built with Kotlin including CRUD operations, authentication, routing, pagination, and more.
See how a Medium.com clone (called Conduit) is built using Kotlin in Android to connect to any other backend from https://realworld.io/.
For more information on how to this works with other backends, head over to the RealWorld repo.
I've gone to great lengths to adhere to the latest community styleguides & best practices but had to adapt between the RealWorld specification and general mobile layout of Medium.com.
This project has been developed with Android Studio
This RealWorld app tries to show the following Android concepts:
- 100% Kotlin Codebase
- MVVM (Model View ViewModel) Architecture
- LiveData
- Kotlin Coroutines
- Jetpack Navigation Architecture
The project follows the general MVVM structure without any specifics.
There are two modules in the project
app- The UI of the app. The main project that forms the APKapi- The REST API consumption library. Pure JVM library not Android-specific
Obviously, this RealWorld app is a frontend app. But it can connect to all backends implementing the RealWorld spec and API. To test you own backend implementation just change the URL in the settings dialog.
This project has been manually tested against
- Emulator
- Pixel 2 Android SDK 23
- Devices
- Samsung S8 Android 8.0.0
The project contains an example e2e test to illustrate an end-to-end test case.
Credits have to go out to Thinkster with their awesome RealWorld
