Presentation
Overwhelmed about all the new stuff that you should be adding to your app yesterday?
Good migrations aren’t that hard to achieve, but they require careful planning, require some things in place, and should be iterative and incremental. They should focus in achieving the goals while reducing the risks and meeting the deadlines.
Now that we have new toys to play with, it is a good opportunity to talk about how to make our lives easier when trying to adopt them. I would like to focus on how to migrate your existing app from traditional Android to Jetpack Compose and how to use Hilt for dependency injection. I will use a full fledged application as an example and discuss architecture best practices, migration strategies, how to apply refactoring and how and when benefit from tests.
I will implement some of the changes using live coding.
Key takeaways:
- Architecture best practices oldies but goldies
- Strategies to migrate to Jetpack Compose
- Techniques to do dependency injection with Hilt
- Usage of (unit and integration) tests to ensure frictionless codebase evolutions
