    I created a Navigation Components tutorial that covers nested NavHostFragments with ViewPager2, BottomNavigationView, Dynamic Feature Modules and more

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 02:59 AM PDT

    I created a Navigation Components tutorial that covers nested NavHostFragments with ViewPager2, BottomNavigationView, Dynamic Feature Modules and more

    Tutorials for learning Navigation Components starting with simple set up, continues with adding top menus, passing arguments via navigation graphs and combining them with different Material Design widgets such as BottomNavigationView, ViewPager2, TabLayout, FragmentFactory(not working as i expected with ViewPager2), and dynamic feature module navigation as shown in the image. Here is the link for repo if you wish to look.

    And there are some issues including how to change BottomNavigationView extension to be usable with DynamicNavHostFragment when it's included with other fragments in BottomNavigation. I used two ViewPager2 for the example shown in the image. since it crashes with

    Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not find Navigator with name "include-dynamic". You must call NavController.addNavigator() for each navigation type. at androidx.navigation.NavigatorProvider.getNavigator(NavigatorProvider.java:98) at androidx.navigation.NavInflater.inflate(NavInflater.java:107) at androidx.navigation.NavInflater.inflate(NavInflater.java:141) at androidx.navigation.NavInflater.inflate(NavInflater.java:88)

    Since NavHostFragment.create returns NavHostFragment instead of type T extends NavHost

    I’ve heard a lot of good things about Flutter, but a lot of people dislike it. Why is that?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 07:55 AM PDT

    So yeah... I'm still in the early learning stages and I'm enjoying it so far.

    I'm doing more research on it and find that there are tons of people who dislike it. I know it's still in its infancy, but doesn't it have potential?

    Anyone used Gonative.io to develop an Android app for a website?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 05:23 AM PDT

    Hi so I have a simple one page website of links like Drudgereport.com. I wanted to ask if this Gonative.io app service can help us create an android app for our website?

    Has anyone used Gonative.io? Is it any good? Is there a better service? Some tips would be useful. Thanks!

    DexGuard, DashO and its competitors

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 01:27 PM PDT

    Hey everyone,

    I am in the process of buying a tool to replace ProGuard, I have tested 2 of them, DexGuard and DashO.

    Both tools seems to be working good and have much more capabilities than ProGuard, they both are asking for $4,000 yearly subscription, which seems a lot to me.

    I would like to hear your opinion about them (especially DashO) and maybe some recommendation for cheaper alternative!

    Room vs SQLite (+100 tables)

    Posted: 30 Jul 2020 04:08 AM PDT

    Hey!

    Im about to start developing an existing app from vb in android studio. The db is already made, i converted it to SQLite db file.

    The question is... Is suitable using Room for this? Or i should make entities that comunicates with the Db simply using SQLite.

    Paging 3 - Force loading data in background

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 10:59 PM PDT

    Hi there! I've been playing around with the new Paging 3 library. I've successfully implemented it in my app which simply displays a contacts list.

    Now I'm implementing a search contacts feature. I simply apply map and filter operations on the Flow<PagingData> and that gives me precise results. However, I've to scroll to the bottom to update all the list of contacts. Otherwise, search works only for the firstly displayed contacts (because bottom contacts aren't loaded into the flow yet).

    I know paging is introduced to load data as user scrolls, but I want to force load the data into list in the background. Any workaround for this?

    Need some help for a visually impaired person

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 11:56 AM PDT

    Hi Everyone!

    I truly do not know where to post my problem as it is so unique, but I hope you developers may be able to answer my question.

    I am visually impaired which means I have to use the magnification gestures on my phone constantly to see the content of the screen.
    The problem is currently there are two flawed methods to activate the magnifier

    - Triple tap gestures slows down everything (as the system waits for the taps)

    - Gesture navigation requires the user to swipe up two fingers from the bottn. You can imagine how often this ends up being recognised as a go home ...

    An ideal solution:

    - a single swipe up from bottm (either side) or corner

    I have seen there are several apps that can modify the gestures, but none of them can do it with magnification.

    From a technical perspective is this even possible ?

    Thank you for your help!

    What to learn next?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 10:44 AM PDT

    In the past month, I've learned Kotlin and I wrote some basic apps in Android Studio ( a to do list, a tip calculator and a darts scoreboard). Now, I'm a bit stuck. I don't know what to learn next or what kind of app to make. I want to go to the next level, where I can make more elaborate apps. What should I learn next? Any suggestions are welcome!

    Need a tutor

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 03:10 PM PDT

    Sorry in advance if this type of post isn't welcome, I'm not looking to hire anyone for a job, just someone who can teach me 1:1. I come from a Windows world and recently started working for a company focused on Android. I need a crash course on Android from someone willing to teach. I need someone with enterprise experience. Will pay hourly.

    Edit: I am not a developer, just need some basic technical knowledge

    How do you approach DB schema design?

    Posted: 29 Jul 2020 02:41 PM PDT

    Room or SQLDelight or your favourite database library. How do you approach designing your tables?

    I've tried to stay away from that side of programming so far but I'd like to get better at it. I know, for example, if you have a user table you can then have an address table and link the two with a foreign key. That makes sense to me. But aside from address, I'm not sure when to have a separate table and when to put the data in the same table. For example if a user has a profile picture. Do I create a profile pictures table and link it to the user or add a column? Where does it end? Where do you draw the line on your projects?

    Specifically is there any special rules that you adhere to given that you're using a mobile device? As in would you simply copy the API response into an entity or would you strip the objects down but otherwise match the structure of the API response? Or are you more conscious of space considerations?
