148: Evolving Android architectures (Part 1)

In this episode, Donn and Kaushik talk about the state of android architectures and how they’ve stared to evolve. Kaushik recently worked on a project of coming up with an evolved version of an MVVM architecture, very similar to what the Android community now calls MVI.

Special request: if you have follow up questions or clarifications or things you’d like to see specifically with respect to this dicussion, hit us up on the Discord #fragmented-podcast channel with your thoughts and we’ll make sure to address them in future parts!

Salient features of the pattern:

I. Screens are driven by a single ViewModel

II. Screens listen to a single Observable exposed from the ViewModel

III. Events are sent into the VM through a single function processInputs

IV. Break(ing) the Chain VI. Testing strategy
