Kotlin Flows in practice

With coroutines as the recommended solution for asynchronous operations, Kotlin Flow is the obvious choice for managing streams of data in Android apps. However, there are some lifecycle perils to consider and new lifecycle-aware APIs to understand in order to get the most out of Flows in Android. Learn about the powerful and expressive Flow APIs and how to use them across all layers of your app in a practical way—solving common use cases every developer can face.

Wow. Its really amazing to see coroutine has evolved in different level now a days. Kudos to the team🙌🏻

[MuhammadFarhan-pqwc]

Wow, that's an Amazing session of Basic understanding of Flow and State flow in the easiest form. very much needed this content because of the dilemma of Flow and Live data and what is flow where to start.

Thanks for the great content Liked it very much.

[vengateshm]

Excellent content. Good to see that life cycle related pain points are addressed elegantly.

[deepakbisht]

What an amazing video! Thanks for the examples you were using they were very clear and adding lifecycle diagram is a top of the cherry...

[thecsciworker]

Wow. Really took a concept and broke it down. Thank you for this!

[jeffreynyauke]

Nice video. You should cover Flows using Jetpack Compose

[ILikeActions]

Amazing content, thank you very much to provide material that it so easy to be understanded!

[thiagolopessilva]

Excellent content. Thanks to share it with us and now I can understand flow in Android context.

[chuka_obi]

This was an awesome tutorial on flows! Thank you

[thomasknee]

Great video, very informative and helped me understand things much better

[hoonjung]

Muchas gracias! Good stuff and well explained! Keep on the good work. Thank you :)

[theredd]

Love it the interactive way you did the video!

[HaSeebpjr]

best toturial ever i watch about Flows

[hichaam]

Thanks for the content, but I think there should be a clearer and a not breaking migration path from LiveData, the current suggestion of replacing `asLiveData` with and `repeatOnLifecycle` won't give the same result, since the whole Flow chain will be re-executed when the apps comes from background, and this wasn't the case with `asLiveData`

[anteckoeros]

Yeah nice video and Pancho is the best example, thank you :)

[streettrialsandstuff]

Why do we need this alternative if we already have RxJava? You might as well have added lifecycle helpers for subscribing on lifecycle and that would pretty much be it

[omkarpawar]

can you explain the difference between statein(...., whilesubscribed(5000) ) and collectAsStateWithLifecycle () are they supposed to do the same thing, because whilesubscirbed waits for 5 seconds ?

[schinsky]

10:46 This part I dont understand. Why is live data considered "adding another technology to the mix" (implying its not ideal), when before you said its lifecycle aware and perfectly fine?

[ranganrangan]

If we use repeatOnLifecycle in activity, then importance of ViewModel likely less. So this example s just for illustration or really we don't need viewmodel anymore?

[megaxenu]

surprisingly this video actually helped.
