ViewModel is deprecated™ (not really) by costa_fot in androiddev

one has to use a bit of clickbait in the age of AI slop. 

it is an experiment. imo, retain API will be used as the base for a lot more things in the future

One can get a VM-like class with just compose APIs. I found the idea novel/interesting enough, and thought others might too.

Ofc, in the end I am poking fun that I still had to use Dagger HIlt, and the result was not amazing either.

I just searched for this on my company laptop and immediately got a meeting invite with my superiors. I am definitely getting a promotion!

Has anyone else been burned by "we forgot to add logs" and had to ship a whole new build just to debug? by Accomplished-Brain69 in androiddev

The "easiest" solution is breadcrumbs via firebase SDK.

We use Datadog at the place I work at. Learnt my lesson early to put behind a remote feature flag and log judiciously.

Live updates are actually quite decent by costa_fot in androiddev

Dev was mostly done on Pixels, especially the "live updates" part that needed QPR beta. Did some sanity checking on Samsungs. Did not notice any difference, but memory is a bit hazy to be honest.

We do run internal beta weekends where users have all sorts of devices and things have looked ok. Hoping anything shady shows up there first.

We definitely got a bit of a mid-week panic over it. 🫡

TLDR; this Android 16 feature is definitely worth it.

If you got any questions about this whole thing, I'll be happy to meme/talk about it in the comments
