Looking for a clean way to do it without passing context to the viewModel

[Sinan Gunes]

I think passing application context should be fine.

[paulex]

Isn’t that a bad practice

[paulex]

I believe the viewModel shouldn’t hold reference to Android classes like activity and context etc

[Sinan Gunes]

have you seen AndroidViewModel ?

Let me check that out

[Sinan Gunes]

activity and its context is bad practice because it will cause leaks. passing application should be fine.

Okay cool

[Sinan Gunes]

application will outlive viewModels anyway.
