    It's awesome you are talking about these things. Even the seniors sometimes ask themselves is this approach good, and then there's your video to give more info and to see how someone like you does things. I love your videos because you always talk about different and very important things that many of the Android developers need. I didn't find anyone making Android videos this detailed and concise. Keep it up!

    I prefer the more monolithic architecture where you have top level data/domain/presentation folders and then subfolders with files that relate. My reason being that app development can be hyper prone to chaning requirements, and needs to be super flexible with. So instead of keeping your usecase feature specific, they should be available from anywhere in the app.
    In my experience, apps that start out using feature-modules suffer from ever-changing reqs and usually end up moving more and more logic/UI from the feature module to the core module, thus invalidating any intent to modularize your app.

    The core modules that define the functions for public use will also continue to increase as the project grows in size.
    As the project size gradually increases, many functions will be located in the core module.
    And there may come a time when we have to think about further modularization of core modules.
    What do you think about this?

  • @Axelfromthehudjelud

  • @LucasSilva-jd2bf
    @LucasSilva-jd2bf 4 місяці тому +3

    What about features referencing each other? For instance, it makes sense for the profile feature to reference the auth feature, as it needs the User model and AuthToken. In that case, would you place these in the core model and reference it in both auth and profile?
    I like the feature-first approach, but I am never able to achieve 100% modularity since there's always a feature that ends up depending on another feature, so now I either put everything in the shared feature or I merge both features together.

    • @iAbanoubSamir
      @iAbanoubSamir 4 місяці тому +3

      I think anything that need to be used by more than one feature is a common or shared and need to be inside core/common module. Since feature module can not depend on another feature module.

      Considering GoogleLoginHandler, into core/presentation or auth/login/presentation imo as it references context and deeply related to pure ui logic.
      Also, depending of the logic you embed into you handlers you should maybe split it into different parts.

    So how is it worse if they have 3 modules and features separated by packages inside those modules? You just reversed it and lost most of the advantages of MVVM Clean. If I need a view model, I go to the presentation, then the package I want, then the packages view model. Instead, it's no longer cleanly separated by job but bloated by feature. This is the mess my last legacy project was organised by. Its terrible.

    Summry Of this vedio
    This video is about creating a package structure for Android apps.
    The speaker, Philipp Lackner, suggests a structure that is clear, easy to understand, and scales to the project's needs. He also mentions that it should be easy to migrate to a multi-module structure.
    Here are the key points from the video:
    * A good package structure should be:
    * Clear and easy to understand
    * Scalable to the project's needs
    * Easy to migrate to a multi-module structure
    * The speaker suggests dividing the app into features, and then creating packages for each feature.
    * Each feature package should contain sub-packages for the presentation layer, domain layer, and data layer.
    * The speaker also suggests having a root package for classes that are shared between multiple features.
    * He concludes by mentioning that this is just a suggestion, and that developers should be flexible with their package structure as long as it meets the criteria mentioned above.
