Ask A Programmer Live #43 | #Programming #Android #Kotlin #Java #Algorithms #Interview #Design

Please keep the discussion focused on matters appropriate to software development and becoming a better programmer. I have my own opinions on geopolitics, as I'm sure you do too, but this is not the purpose of the show.

This is a live Q&A show where I try to answer any question which I feel like I might have some useful input on. Don't spam questions but if I skip yours please do let me know as it was probably an accident.

Here's a non-exhaustive list of topics I know about:
- Kotlin, Java
- Android, Desktop
- Software Engineering (Datastructures, Algorithms, and "Big O Complexity" for interview preparation)
- Software Architecture
- Productivity and Motivation
- Computer Science
- Teaching
- Interview Prep
- Meditation
- Exercise

Commonly asked questions w/ answers:
Dependency Injection & Service Locator explained simply
What is the best architecture? MVP, MVC, MVVM, MVI, etc.
What skills are required for a job ready Android developer?

Format: Ask me anything about computers, programming, learning, productivity, self-directed studies, and whatever else. If you are a beginner, or ESL, let me know in your question so I can simplify my answers.

I have tried to build packageMsi file but it is not running when I install it to my windows desktop. so maybe I am missing something for build script or something like that. app runs perfectly when I start from android studio. but not running when I build msi file from that code.

hey,
Currently I am learning KMM. i have learned by myself android programming from youtube and all free resources. And I am doing this from last 2 years. so my question is how build exe file or msi file for windows desktop from KMM project. I don't have in-depth knowledge about desktop apps almost ZERO knowledge about desktop apps. When I saw KMM I got inspired to try out this. I have tried SqlDelight and ktor for networking and local Data storage. it's running perfectly but I don't know how to create exe file from this KMM Project. can you make such video about that. Many Android developers like me will get banifit from this. There is no such content available for developer like me(Who has only learnt Android Development with advance IDE like android studio so never bother about how apks are built and all stuff).
