Whether you create one app a year or multiple apps in a month - there must have been times when you got tired of looking at long strings of code tangled together into a spaghetti-like mess. This is particularly painful if you have to inherit a legacy code base and you have to add features to it or fix bugs. Make your life easier and building apps fun...............by learning tried and tested software architectural patterns. In this course – you will Get a detailed and behind the scenes look at Model-View-Presenter (MVP) pattern, which helps make code simple and clean. You also get familiar with other fundamental concepts like dependency injection, reactive programming, unit testing, mock objects which assist you throughout the app development lifecycle. Learn frameworks like Dagger 2, Retrofit, RxJava, Junit, Mockito and others. Gain valuable skills of architecting apps in a flexible and scalable manner.
