How to make an extension function for showing Toast inside of both Activity and fragment. My take on this:

-.kt

[Ive Vasiljevic]

Or should I make an extension function for Activity and Fragment to cover both cases?

[tseisel]

I find it safer to define a separate extension for Activity and Fragment, as Context can also refer to the application context. Not sure that using the application context would prevent from showing the toast, but UI things should be called from UI code.

If possible, try to get away from Toast. android core ktx used to have this extension and it got removed a while back

Use other widgets like snackbar (with undo etc)
