In this episode, we talk to Jake Wharton of Google on a recent Kotlin coding style guide that they released: the Android Kotlin Guides. In this episode, we pick his brains and ask him how he structured the guide, how he partitioned it to fit some of the idiosyncrasies of Kotlin, what some of the challenges were, when coming up with the guide and much more.
Jake’s one of the best out there and it’s always such a pleasure to have him on the show.
We have Jake Wharton and RxJava in one episode ?. In this power-packed episode we talk to Jake about the advances in RxJava 1.x since the last time he was on the show and also looking ahead at the advancements coming down with RxJava 2. If you’re interested in RxJava, this episode will definitely be a treat!
In Part 1 of our Google IO special we talk to a whole bunch of amazing AndroidDev. We go around asking them a few simple questions. Questions, that you probably thought to ask when you saw them in person, but just forgot to.
Oh and you really should listen all the way to the end :)
In the final part of this two-part segment, we continue our talk with Jake Wharton. We dive right into the topic of testing. Jake then talks about his approach to testing apps in Android and the different languages that he finds interesting. We then move on to RxJava, NotRxAndroid, SqlBrite and many other libraries and topics to round out this great second episode. Again, we’d love to thank Jake for joining us here on the Fragmented Podcast show; it has been an honor. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
In part one of this two-part segment, we talk to the one and only Jake Wharton. He gives us the scoop on how he operates day to day, what he looks for in a good Android developer and how to become a better Android developer. He also touches upon the various sources and non-Java platforms that he draws inspiration from. Finally, he talks about open source and gives tips on leading an open source project.
