Kotlin’s Flow is a powerful tool for handling asynchronous data streams. It helps manage sequences of values that are emitted over time. To fully utilize Flow, you need to understand its operators. What is Flow? Before learning about Flow operators, let’s first understand Flow itself. Flow is part of Kotlin’s

Kotlin coroutines let you write asynchronous code more easily. You can use a CoroutineScope to control when your coroutines start and stop. Each asynchronous task runs within a specific scope. Lifecycle-aware components support coroutines and work well with LiveData. This guide explains how to use coroutines with these components effectively.

Let’s talk about handling errors in coroutines. This is key to building reliable apps. We’ll cover the basics and show you how to deal with problems effectively. Concept of a “Job” in Kotlin Coroutines When you start a coroutine with launch or async, you get a Job object. A Job

Coroutines make asynchronous programming easier to read and manage in Kotlin. A key part of using coroutines effectively is understanding Coroutine Dispatchers, which decide which thread a coroutine runs on. What is a Coroutine Dispatcher? A Coroutine Dispatcher assigns coroutines to specific threads for execution. The choice of dispatcher affects

Hello, this is the 2nd article in the Kotlin Coroutine tutorial series. In this article we will learn about Coroutine Scope What is Coroutine Scope? As we know in the previous article, to start a coroutine we need to use the launch or async function. These are essentially extension functions

What are suspend functions In Kotlin, a suspend function is a special function used for asynchronous programming. It can pause and resume later without blocking the thread, making coroutines efficient for handling long-running tasks. Key Features: Non-blocking Pauses: A suspend function can pause without stopping the entire thread, allowing other
