nsmirosh / Interactive-Android-Concepts

This is a collection of various code samples of Jetpack Compose and Kotin coroutines. The app is intended to demonstrate the correct and wrong usage of certain concepts.

Android Concepts Examples

This is a collection of code samples and demonstrations focusing on Android development, specifically Jetpack Compose and Kotlin coroutines.

The goal of this repository is to visually illustrate the usage of complex Android concepts. The samples aim to be interactive.

All of the video illustrations have corresponding code representations.

Feel free to play around with these examples to get a better understanding of each of the concepts.

Other Android Concepts

Multiple processes

Two services are launched in different processes and both of the have a RuntimeException(). One service crashes the app and the one that is in the separate process does not.
