In Hilt, can I reuse @Qualifier custom annotations?
For my app I connect to a rest backend as well as an iot device. So I'm making these two annotations

@Qualifier
@Retention(AnnotationRetention.RUNTIME)
annotation class Backend

@Qualifier
@Retention(AnnotationRetention.RUNTIME)
annotation class Device

I can use these annotations multiple times for different objects, right?
Like use the @Backend custom annotation for the Retrofit instance as well as a provided String and maybe some other objects I will need later on.

yes you can, every qualifier is reusable, think of @Singleton

[Michael Vandendriessche]

yep, makes sense. thank you!

Yes, you can differentiate your Retrofit instances using those custom annotations yes
