Adapting CLEAN Architecture in Android Apps from Pluralsight

CLEAN architecture in Android makes dealing with frequent changes less painful. Learning the proper implementation of CLEAN Architecture with a few popular libraries will enable you to create robust, testable, and maintainable apps.

Change is inevitable and Android apps are no exception. The tools, the requirements, the features, the user interface will change eventually. One needs to implement an architecture that embraces change and that treats frameworks and libraries as pluggable components. In this course, Adapting CLEAN Architecture in Android Apps, you will learn the concepts, benefits, and implementation of CLEAN Architecture in Android Apps. First, you will learn about the core concepts of CLEAN Architecture. Next, you will discover various helpful libraries like RxJava, Dagger2, and Android architecture components (AAC) that help with the implementation of the CLEAN Architectural pattern. Finally, you will explore how architecture enables the testing of individual components in isolation. When you are finished with this course, you will have the skills and knowledge to implement CLEAN Architectural pattern in your own projects to create robust, testable, and maintainable Android apps.
