yeah, it's around 40 Constant value in that class
so then I will call it in many places on my app so this may be boilerplate code or something bad i think 😏

07/05/2019, 2:53 PMAre there are 40 of them, then it starts to make sense. Could you make them an enum? Or maybe the code somehow so it doesn't need to refer to specific values everywhere?

07/05/2019, 3:00 PM@karelpeeters mmmm I know enums but I never used it before 😂
so actually I don't know it will be a proper solution or not
I just have around 40 Constant values some of them are an integer like id from 1 to 20 (maybe I can add those values inside enum mmmm)
the rest is just string
