How to start writing reusable components for Android apps?

• Mosby

  1 5,492 0.0 Java

  A Model-View-Presenter / Model-View-Intent library for modern Android apps

Yep, and not only for the app layer. Plenty articles on that matter. I recommend you to read Hannes Dorfmann’s story on MVI since a lot of useful concepts and ideas are there. He elaborates on topics such as how to organise, test, reuse and maintain your code which is not a part of this article but those two topics are strictly related. On the other hand I’m not a fan of tools like Mosby or Moxy because I painfully found out they are rather constraining. Inheriting behaviour, state or plugins from base classes was catastrophic in our cases. Refactors and building custom behaviour for new screens were messy tasks and required much effort. Instead, use lifecycle aware components (again, see Android tools) or setup your architecture the way that you can call your business logic anytime. Some people calls it overhead. I would call it simplicity especially most of us happen to use caching.
