3. MV* - The Confusion Begins! Model Controller Presenter ViewModel Intent View
4. Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) Model ViewModel View This is a architecture not the architecture Exposes Data Requests Data Observes User Actions & Events
5. MVVM on Android Jetpack for the Rescue
6. LiveData 1. An Observable with LifeCycle ability 2. Instantly notifies the changes in the data to the UI Observes for updates LiveData value updates Notifies the observer Update the UI STARTED Or RESUMED?
7. ViewModel 1. Middle man for View & Model 2. Decouples data from the view to survive the configuration changes 3. Never put the references to “Context” or “View” inside the ViewModel
8. Finally, the Architecture All the UI related stuff Holds data required by UI and survives configuration changes Responsible for providing data to ViewModel Data sources (or model) such as database or from the server
9. Testing Who got time for it? My code is perfect.
