Is anyone using MvRx? How good is it? Any recommendation of a lib or framework to tame the "dragon called state"? I feel like I could optimize my workflow by containing mutations and impurities (in a FP sense) and would like to ask you some recommendations about this kind of tools.

Planning too on my next module refactor! I think a recent tweet by G. Peal had a thread coming off it where people were discussing using it. head there? His handle is gpeal8

[ghedeon]

not my cup of tea, feels too heavy but Chris Banes is playing with it in his demo app: https://github.com/chrisbanes/tivi

[Icaro Temponi]

thanks @ghedeon, a demo will help me a lot.
thanks @David, I'll check the tweet right now to see what do they think about it.

As you can see, I'm following closely!

[Icaro Temponi]

thanks again, was having a hard time finding it 🙂

I wrote a review on MvRx yesterday 🙂

awsome! I'll read it right now, thanks

Alrighty, if you’d have any more questions don’t mind messaging me. I’ve also struggled a bit to make it Dagger compatible and was using with Koin integration as well.

[Icaro Temponi]

Is it easier to integrate with Koin? that's the DI solution I'm using currently

[Jirka]

It definitely is

[Icaro Temponi]

Nice, good to know

[Jirka]

Koin is pain tho if you have a bigger project because of it’s performance impacts and scoping disability

[Icaro Temponi]

Oh, I see. Just hope 2.0 will speed that up.

[Jirka]

Generally speaking Koin 2 is twice times faster than Koin 1, but it’s just nowhere as Dagger2 code generation. That’s just blazing fast compared to Koin.

@Jirka you said twice that Mobius is FP oriented. Is it Spotify Mobius? It didn't look very different from the other MVI solutions and I kinda like that it's not RX bounded.

[Icaro Temponi]

Hm, interesting, considering I just moved from Fuel to Retrofit, wouldn't surprise me to move another lib to a more "mainstreamy" solution when the need arises.

[Jirka]

It is way more FP aware than other libs out there, to me it is the closest to the pure state machine solution.

[Jirka]

Yeah and I mean the Spotify’s Mobius 🙂

[Icaro Temponi]

Heard about it but didn't look much deep though. Considering Spotify's using it in their mobile app must be worth taking a looking.

[Jirka]

It is definitely more complex to understand and use than MVI to me. But they have led a presentation and explained it very well. There was a video shared on Facebook regarding that.

[ghedeon]

@Icaro Temponi Good luck with your findings. Just because you started the topic, don't feel obliged to immideattely reconfirm everybody's reply with "thanks" and "will try" 😉.

[Icaro Temponi]

Hm, so I can't say thanks to your don't say thanks advice? 🤔, hehe

[Icaro Temponi]

Anyway, thanks everybody, all that content will help me a lot 😄

[Jirka]

You are welcome 🙂
