In this episode, we talk about the different parts of Android architecture components. We've had episodes on Room and the paging library, so in this one, we thought we'll touch a little on Lifecycle Owners & Observers, ViewModels, and LiveData. Akshay Chordiya helps break it down. Listen on!

Android Architecture Components

Lifecycle

ViewModels

Code snippet for a ViewModelFactory:

    class UserVMFactory(
            val user: MyUser
    ) : ViewModelProvider.Factory {
        override fun  create(modelClass: Class): T {
            return when {
                modelClass.isAssignableFrom(UserVM::class.java) ->
                    UserVM(user) as T
                else -> throw IllegalArgumentException("Unknown ViewModel class")
            }
        }
    }
