🎬 An android app for exploring movies using the movie database API Implemented by Clean Architecture, MVVM, Compose, Coroutines, Flow, Hilt, Jetpack(Room, Datastore)

• Kotlin - is a modern and pragmatic programming language developed by JetBrains. It is fully interoperable with Java and widely adopted for Android app development.
• Asynchronous:
  • Coroutines - Kotlin's coroutine library simplifies asynchronous programming and enhances concurrency management.
• Networking:
  • Retrofit - A type-safe HTTP client library for Android and Java, facilitating easy and efficient RESTful API calls.
  • OkHttp - An HTTP client library often used in conjunction with Retrofit for networking tasks.
• Serialization:
  • Kotlinx Serialization - Kotlinx Serialization is a Kotlin library that provides a powerful and flexible way to serialize and deserialize Kotlin data classes.
• Image loading:
  • Coil - An image loading library for Android, designed to be lightweight and efficient in handling image processing tasks.
• Jetpack:
  • Compose - A modern UI toolkit for declaring UI components in a declarative manner.
  • Lifecycle - A tool for handling actions related to the app's lifecycle changes.
  • ViewModel - Used to store and manage UI-related data in a lifecycle-aware way.
  • Paging3 - A tool for managing pagination in large datasets.
  • Room - An ORM library built on SQLite for handling local databases.
  • Datastore - A modern data storage library for data management.
• Architecture:
  • MVVM(Model-View-ViewModel)
  • Android Architecture components - A set of libraries providing architecture components for Android app development.
  • Android KTX - Kotlin extensions for Android app development, enhancing Kotlin usage convenience.
• Dependency Injection:
  • Hilt - A dependency injection library for Android apps, providing a simple and efficient approach based on Dagger.
• Protocol buffers - protobuf is a method developed by Google for serializing structured data, similar to XML or JSON. It is designed to be more efficient and compact than traditional serialization formats.
• Testing:
  • JUnit4 - JUnit4 is a unit testing framework for Java and Kotlin. It is used to write unit tests for business logic or utility methods in Android apps.
  • Robolectric - Robolectric is a unit testing framework for Android. It provides a simulated Android environment for testing, allowing you to run tests on Android framework-dependent code without the need for a real Android device or emulator.
  • Espresso - Espresso is a testing framework for Android UI tests. It is used to test the behavior of user interfaces by interacting with UI elements and verifying the outcomes.
• Static analysis tools:
  • Detekt - A tool for static analysis of Kotlin code, verifying code complexity and searching for code smells.
  • Spotless - A code formatter and verifier tool to keep your code clean and consistent.
• Gradle:
  • Gradle Kotlin DSL + Gradle Convetion Plugins + Custom tasks
• Dependency versions:
  • Version catalog TOML file format - A convenient method in Gradle for managing dependency versions
• Continuous Integration:
  • GitHub Actions - A CI tool provided by GitHub for automating workflows.

Video Playback(Picture-in-Picture)	Dark(Light) theme

This project requires The Movie Database (TMDB) API key to access external APIs. Follow the steps below to configure the API key:

1. Create a local.properties file in the project root directory.

2. Add the TMDB_API_KEY to the local.properties file as shown below:

   TMDB_API_KEY=your TMDB_API key

3. Build and run the project.

• Offline-first caching
• Add localization support (Korean, English, Japanese)
• Add dark and light theme support
• Implement video playback using YouTube IFrame API
• Add support for PIP(Picture-in-Picture) in video player

This project is developed with inspiration from the The Movies2 project.
