Hi all, Just exploring Android Jetpack and made my first tutorial about it. This tutorial covers one of the components in Android Jetpack - Data Binding. http://imakeanapp.com/android-jetpack-data-binding/ Source code can be found here: https://github.com/arthlimchiu/android-data-binding-tutorial

My article on wrapping Java builders in a Kotlin DSL, as a guest post on @s1m0nw1's blog: https://kotlinexpertise.com/java-builders-kotlin-dsls/

New release for Kotlin-Statistics 1.1.3. Added are several random extension functions and WeightedCoin/WeightedDice utilities, which are helpful for simulation modeling, stochastic programming, optimization, and games. https://github.com/thomasnield/kotlin-statistics/releases/tag/1.1.3

Java Jocks, hahaha https://adtmag.com/articles/2018/07/11/kotlin-survey.aspx

If you’ve been around in Android for quite a while, you probably know that managing an app’s lifecycle is quite a headache! Have you ever had these moments yourself?

Should I put this code in onStart() or onResume()?
Should I put this code in onPause() or onStop()?
*Runs the app. Wait, why isn't it called?!
*Moves code to another lifecycle callback

Hi, all Just published a new article about the Lifecycle library found in Android Jetpack. Would be glad to hear your feedback. http://imakeanapp.com/android-jetpack-lifecycle/ Source code can be found here: https://github.com/arthlimchiu/android-lifecycle-library-tutorial

I wrote a post on concurrency management with Kotlin coroutines on Android. I focused on code examples to make it accessible and show how it improves our code https://geoffreymetais.github.io/code/coroutines/

Text categorization with Naive Bayes and Kotlin. Here's a simple form of machine learning you can build from scratch.

Hi everyone, Just released the second part of a two-part article that shows how to use Drive Android API to resolve conflicts when syncing data as well as monitoring a file/folder for changes. You can find it at: http://androidahead.com/2018/07/25/drive-android-api-integration-part-2/ For the first part, go to: http://androidahead.com/2018/07/04/driveapidemoapp-part-1/ For the demo app (in Kotlin), please visit GitHub at ( https://github.com/JoaoMotondon/DriveApiDemoApp )

Hi, I recently started blogging and wrote some articles on Kotlin (NPEs and Coroutines): https://blog.drako.guru/

Inheritance, composition, delegation, and traits in Kotlin https://blog.kotlin-academy.com/inheritance-composition-delegation-and-traits-b11c64f11b27

I published the second article of my series about Kotlin coroutines, this time it is about buildIterator & buildSequence https://blog.drako.guru/2018/07/31/introduction-to-coroutines-part-2/

We a heavily using co-routines at DoorDash, here is how we avoid cache stampede using builtin kotlin co-routine constructs https://blog.doordash.com/avoiding-cache-stampede-at-doordash-55bbf596d94b

The latest version of SonarQube supports the Kotlin language https://www.sonarqube.org/sonarqube-7-3/

I know I've posted it before but Kotlin and Coroutines are doing so well handling 10K+ requests for us wanted to share it again. Thing to note is we are not doing some dummy static string return; we are doing a proper DB/Cache read on almost 3 tables (Hibernate + Spring boot + GRPC) and we are able to handle load pretty well even from single machine https://blog.doordash.com/avoiding-cache-stampede-at-doordash-55bbf596d94b

I am happy to announce my first release 0.1.0 of kotlin-oauth2-server. With the first implementation done for Ktor: https://github.com/adhesivee/kotlin-oauth2-server Give it a go and tell me what you think

Last night I pushed 0.13 of my kibble project. It’s kotlin parser wrapped around the kotlinpoet API. The kotlinpoet dependency is new with this release as is the visitor based approach to parsing. There’s work left to do on coverage of the entire syntax (to a reasonable limit) but it’s quite robust as is. Please kick the tires and file issues on anything you find. https://github.com/evanchooly/kibble

I’m so excited to share that after a long time I have published something noteworthy in the Android world. This time, one of the most searched terms in Android- “Android App Architectures: Example of MVP with Kotlin”. This is definitely worth reading as I have added every single line after a thought. I have tried to keep it as simple as possible so you will get the core concepts with ease. Moreover, there are custom illustrations showing the workflow of each architecture in Android.

If you liked, please Like, Comment & Share.
