Rick and Morty App

A simple app that pulls character data from the Rick and Morty API and displays it in a grid view. You can click on the thumbnails to get more detail about a specific character.

The code is intended to showcase a simple list/detail Android app that makes mainstream and modern tech choices ("best practices") in Android development as of Q4 2023. (Google's excellent Now in Android App reference does this too, but is a more complex example.)

Technical Choices

• "Offline first" approach

• Retrofit w/ Kotlin Serialization

• Room

• Kotlin

• Compose

• MVVM w/ uni-directional data flow

• Loading/Content/Error pattern in UI & Data layers

• Navigation

• Hilt with KSP

To do

• Broader and more elegant use of MaterialTheme
• Tests
