# coroutines

Hello, I'm wondering where is it best on Android to launch a coroutine for a simple post to a server. Let's say I have a button on a Fragment that call a function in a Viewmodel that call a function in a Repository. Should I launch the coroutine in the Fragment, the Viewmodel or the Repository?

You’re likely going to want to implement CoroutineScope in your ViewModel, that way coroutines started for things like network calls are tied to the ViewModel

I prefer ViewModel where you can provide an appropriate scope for the coroutine

and now there is a ViewModelScope Extension property https://craigrussell.io/2019/03/coroutine-support-in-viewmodels-using-the-new-viewmodelscope-extension-property/

Needs the alpha version though.
