A sample Android app, which lists all countries with some additional information (currencies, languages, …). The app uses the MVVM pattern with the Android data binding lib. Countries can be bookmarked and are then stored locally with Realm. Retrofit is used to fetch the country information from the free REST Countries service. For JSON parsing, custom Gson TypeAdapters are used. Parceler is used to make the Country objects Parcelable. Also, Dagger 2 is used for dependency injection.
The purpose of this is app is to show how:
- the MVVM pattern can be used with the data binding lib and a RecyclerView.
- Retrofit, Realm, Parceler and Gson with custom TypeAdapters work together
- Dagger 2 can be used with different Scopes
