anyone here used

ViewModel

with

AsyncTask

to update UI and handle config-changes?

Out of curiosity, why are you using AsyncTask instead of RxJava or LiveData?

I dont use RxJava and i havent yet used LiveData

If you’re using the

ViewModel

from Architecture Components you should look into using LiveData… it’s not too hard to learn and it will make your life much much easier in the long run (and your code cleaner!)

ive been trying to find examples (w/o rx) but theres not a great deal of decent examples that i could find

Looks heavy for a small task 😕 There are other approach which seem better (LiveData is the easiest to implement I think)
