Course Description
One of the most common questions I get asked while teaching Android Development is "What is MVVM and how do I use it?"
This is a fundamental concept in Android Architectures, and this course addresses that question.
Here we will start from scratch, and discuss what is MVVM and why use it. We will see the components that need to go into this architecture and we will see how they fit together to provide an easy way to implement a healthy application. That is, an application that is scalable, maintainable, easy to understand and easy to test.
We will look at MVVM, ViewModels, LiveData, contexts, Transformations, Mediators and a lot more.
We will implement all these concepts in practice in several Android applications, to give you a clear understanding of how to use them.
Finally, we will also discuss best practices, patterns and anti patterns. There are a lot of gotchas around MVVM and in this course we will learn how to avoid them.
This course is a complete discussion around the topic of MVVM and Android Architectures. It is the architecture supported and recommended by Google.
There is no need to search through incomplete online tutorials or youtube videos. This course is all you need to get a deep understanding of the architecture, as well as practical knowledge of how to use it.
So sign up today and let's start learning to build MVVM in our apps.

Pretty good, course on learning the basics of the MVVM architecture and learning more advance things like Live Data and transformations. However the content is a bit outdated especially for transformations where the examples used in the course are now considered legacy even one of the classes used to do transformations is depreciated and unavailable. Other than that if you want to learn what MVVM is and how to use it to develop android applications then this course will be for you.

Excellent course! All major parts and components of MVVM were well covered with clear explanations and practical examples. The structure was well organized, making the concepts easy to grasp and apply.

An excellent course that examines and explains the MVVM architecture in detail. I really liked the author's most understandable explanations and many examples. Many thanks to the teacher for his hard work!

I have one small suggestion sir , implement small modules as example for better understanding how to use the MVVM architecture. Now its fine but it will be more understandable if its very simple Eg- implement a login activity in MVVM which include live fetching of data from server side.

Yes, it help's me a lot to understand concept of MVVM but I need code in java. This video is pretty good. And I would like to say that please write language in description so that each person know.

It was a nice course. On the very last 1 minute, in the conclusion, there is some clapping and restarting. You might want to re-record that part. Not a big deal, but it's the last audio before writing the review, so it might be good to update.

Good Course, it help me to understand the basic of MVVM Architecture, but i would love to learn more about another method of viewModel instead of using convenience function but using the ViewModelProvider. Android Studio currently implement the ViewModelProvider so i see there are factory and repository. i love to understand about that more. Overall Great Course

After trying to understand MVVM with many different courses, with this one finally I am following all very good without confusion and understanding this architecture. Clear and straight to the point! I really recommend it to everybody :)

It is really great Only one suggestion please provide github links for the project you have created also felt 10-15 minutes can be reduced if we can skip the `new application setup` for almost 5-6 times in the tutorial.

I miss info regarding the how ViewModel works under the hood. I guess, this understanding is essential. Course should contain some info about ViewModelStore and all related stuff.
