Key benefits

  • Understand various software design principles and patterns to make an application more testable
  • Structure your application’s code into different layers and components to make it more maintainable and flexible
  • Study popular libraries and frameworks and integrate them into an application

Description

As an application’s code base increases, it becomes harder for developers to maintain existing features and introduce new ones. In this clean architecture book, you'll learn to identify when and how this problem emerges and how to structure your code to overcome it. The book starts by explaining clean architecture principles and Android architecture components and then explores the tools, frameworks, and libraries involved. You’ll learn how to structure your application in the data and domain layers, the technologies that go in each layer, and the role that each layer plays in keeping your application clean. You’ll understand how to arrange the code into these two layers and the components involved in assembling them. Finally, you'll cover the presentation layer and the patterns that can be applied to have a decoupled and testable code base. By the end of this architecture book, you'll be able to build an application following clean architecture principles and have the knowledge you need to maintain and test the application easily.

Who is this book for?

This book is for Android developers who want to learn about managing the complexity of their applications, and is also highly recommended for intermediate or advanced Android developers looking for a go-to guide for clean architecture and the integration of various Android technologies. New developers familiar with the fundamentals of Android app development will find this book useful too.

What you will learn

  • Discover and solve issues in Android legacy applications
  • Become well versed in the principles behind clean architecture
  • Get to grips with writing loosely coupled and testable code
  • Find out how to structure an application's code in separate layers
  • Understand the role each layer plays in keeping the application clean
  • Integrate existing frameworks and libraries for each layer

I have to say I really enjoyed the book and it provided me a good amount of new knowledge.The book, starts from the most basic implementation of an Android app, to gradually introduce different layers (Presentation, Domain, Data), libraries and patterns that facilitate testing, decoupling, and distribution.It is very up-to-date with the latest libraries covering things like Coroutines, Flows, Hilt and Compose.It does provide a good amount of exercises, and code examples that facilitate understanding how all the concepts actually fit together "in the real world".To sum up I think this book would fit very well for anyone interested in bringing their app to the next level. I believe previous experience working with Android is required since you would need technical knowledge to understand some of the concepts and when to actually use them in a production environment.

This book manages to summarise 10 years of Android development into 10 very detailed chapters, each with exercises and explanations which are easy to follow and understand. You will start with a little background history on how apps used to be developed in the past and the importance of common Software Engineering conventions.As soon as Chapter 2 you will start building and running apps and using the most up to date tools, technologies and conventions as the chapters progress: Jetpack Compose, Retrofit, Room, Hilt, MVVM, MVI and to top it all off, unit tests and UI tests. And all at the same time as learning how to implement it all using Clean Architecture principles in a modern multi module setup.I would highly recommend this book to any Android developer who may have doubts on how Clean Architecture is implemented on Android and wants to reinforce their knowledge or finally learn the actual way to do it properly. On top of this, you will get to learn a lot of other invaluable skills which have become industry standard.

I love the thorough approach to clean architecture design on Android. He starts at the beginning, with software design principles and the Android framework and ecosystem. You can skip through that if you need to. This is a book to keep coming back to!

pros: I'd been working with Android for 5 years in a row and I never tought about architectural patterns for my application, this book provides a clear guidance about how to implement them in my current projects.cons: This book is not for beginners, its for people that is looking to improve their skills.

The book starts with a cursory overview of Android history and a brief look at SOLID design principles. There are several key content areas to include Kotlin, data persistence, and Jetpack Compose. The data and presentation layers are also covered in the book, the later including MVVM and MVI architectures.Overall, the book has good content and could benefit from additional depth and examples for readers to truly understand the concepts.
