Offline data ( Caching )

Caching is a way of temporarily storing data fetched from a network on a device’s storage, so that we can access it at a later time when the device is offline or if we want to access the same data again.

In this article, I’ll be talking about how to enable caching with Retrofit in your app, and store responses temporarily for later use. All this without using a database

Benefits of Caching

Reduces bandwidth consumption.
Saves you time you’d spend waiting for the server to give you the network response.
Saves the server the burden of additional traffic.
If you need to access the same network resource again after having accessed it recently, your device won’t need to make a request to the server; it’ll get the cached response instead.
