nickbutcher/plaid

This is an Android application that aggregates content from social and professional networks, specifically Designer News, Dribbble, and Product Hunt. The system has been refactored into a modular architecture using Kotlin, AndroidX, and Dagger2 for dependency injection. It implements modern Android patterns like MVVM and Data Binding, with each content source (e.g., Designer News, Dribbble) organized into separate feature modules. The codebase includes comprehensive test coverage for view models, data layers, and domain logic, indicating a focus on maintainability and reliability.

This period marks the comprehensive Plaid 2.0 rewrite, characterized by the removal of legacy Java code and deprecated API integrations. The project modernizes its architecture by migrating to Kotlin, AndroidX, and the Android Architecture Components, while updating build tools and dependencies.

The refactoring extended to the UI layer, where ViewModels and Data Binding were adopted to improve separation of concerns and testability. Concurrently, significant effort was dedicated to increasing test coverage, with new unit and integration tests added for the domain, data, and UI layers.

This period focused on refactoring the codebase by moving Designer News-specific data, database, and API client logic into a dedicated module, while introducing search capabilities for both Designer News and Dribbble. The work also included adding comprehensive unit and instrumentation tests to ensure the reliability of these new components.
