Heya everyone! 👋 I’m a noob to kotlin and had this question. I’m trying to build a retrofit service class in kotlin and saw two approaches and not sure which one is better. 1. In the

RetrofitApi.kt

interface, define a companion object which returns a service object. 2. Define a separate class and instantiate the object in

init {}

. Is there a recommended way of doing things on android and what are the pros and cons of each approach? Thanks!

Up to you. I would say that first approach is bad because coupling declaration with implementation initialization in constructor of another class also doesn’t look correct for me, I would better write some factory of services But it depends on your use case of course, and Kotlin implementation is not something very different from Java
