A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

`Day17`
• Completed Unit 2
• Created Affirmations app through Codelab as well as one with Compose
• Reviewed manual Dependency Injection
• Progress with RBP
`Self-Comment`
• I'm definitely having to take a slower approach with the layouts. Went through recycler view today and left me quite puzzled compared to the alternative in Compose(what I'm used to using). After Unit 3 I may go back and do some refactoring on these apps or add some features. Compose apps for sure, maybe the codelab apps.. My Compose version of the apps are poorly structured, but "completing" them on top of the Codelab app nonetheless! Looking forward to diving into Navigation tomorrow :slightly_smiling_face:
• Went through manual dependency injection again. I definitely understood a lot more on how it works compared to before. Must mean I'm learning something? A bit fuzzy towards the bottom, but will revisit after Navigation Unit.  Need to revisit lambdas still, checked documentation but I hate documentation that just uses single letters. My brain has a difficult time replacing the variables with realistic examples when done so.
• Progress with RBP! (maybe). While I know how useful it can be to learn how to query with sql and automate / build reports.. I'm currently tired of this project as it feels like I'm running in circles with little progress each time. This might be due to the fact when working with Android I'm doing front-end work so get to see shiny things appear on my phone
`Goals Tomorrow`
1. Work on <https://developer.android.com/courses/android-basics-kotlin/unit-3|Unit 3 Navigation>
2. Review Lambdas &amp; <https://kotlinlang.org/docs/generics.html|Generics>
3. Research how to change app icon in Compose
4. Work on RBP

Not completely comparable as Compose version could be structured better, but here's most of the code between the two
