An Android application for browsing recipes given ingredients.

Features:

• Search recipes by ingredients
• Save recipes for later
• Search recipes by meal
• Watch recipe preparation videos

Architecture that is meticulously planned is paramount for an application's scalability, and all architectural designs share a universal aim - to handle the complexity of your application. This might not be a concern for smaller-scale apps, but it can be incredibly advantageous when working on apps with an extended development timeline and a bigger team.

Robert C. Martin introduced the concept of Clean Architecture in 2012 via the Clean Code Blog, and it abides by the SOLID principle.

This app uses MVVM (Model-View-ViewModel) architecture design.

This project uses many of the popular libraries, plugins and tools of the android ecosystem.

• Material Design 3 - Build Jetpack Compose UIs with ready to use Material Design Components.
• Foundation - Write Jetpack Compose applications with ready to use building blocks and extend foundation to build your own design system pieces.
• UI - Fundamental components of compose UI needed to interact with the device, including layout, drawing, and input.
• Lifecycle-ViewModel - Perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
• HiltViewModel - Hilt provides a standard way to incorporate Dagger dependency injection into an Android application.
• Lottie - Lottie is a mobile library for Android and iOS that parses Adobe After Effects animations exported as json with Bodymovin and renders them natively on mobile!

• SwipeRefresh - A library which provides a layout which provides the swipe-to-refresh UX pattern, similar to Android's SwipeRefreshLayout.
• Navigation - A library which provides Compose Material support for Jetpack Navigation Compose. This features composable bottom sheet destinations.

• DataStore - Jetpack DataStore is a data storage solution that allows you to store key-value pairs or typed objects with protocol buffers.
• Android KTX - Provide concise, idiomatic Kotlin to Jetpack and Android platform APIs.
• AndroidX - Major improvement to the original Android Support Library, which is no longer maintained.
• Lifecycle - Perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
• ViewModel - Designed to store and manage UI-related data in a lifecycle conscious way. The ViewModel class allows data to survive configuration changes such as screen rotations.
• Room - Provides an abstraction layer over SQLite used for offline data caching.

• Dagger Hilt - Dependency Injection library.

• Retrofit - Type-safe http client and supports coroutines out of the box.
• OkHttp-Logging-Interceptor - Logs HTTP request and response data.

• Coroutines - Library Support for coroutines.
• Flow - Flows are built on top of coroutines and can provide multiple values. A flow is conceptually a stream of data that can be computed asynchronously.

• Timber - A logger with a small, extensible API which provides utility on top of Android's normal Log class.

• JUnit4 - JUnit is a simple framework to write repeatable tests.
• Mockk - A modern Mockk library for UnitTest.
• Turbine - Small testing library for kotlinx.coroutines Flow
• Coroutine-Test - Provides testing utilities for effectively testing coroutines.

• GradleVersionCatalog - Gradle's support for declaring and using dependencies.
• KSP - Kotlin Symbol Processing (KSP) is an API that you can use to develop lightweight compiler plugins.
