Architecture

Gallerit is based on MVVM architecture, fetching data from the network and integrating persisted data in the database via repository pattern.

Reddit API

Gallerit uses the Reddit API to load images on the gallery screen.

GitHub Actions

GitHub Actions verify project correctness on every push to master branch and on every PR. All of the tasks run in parallel.

These are all of the Gradle tasks that are workflows:

• ./gradlew test - Run unit tests
• ./gradlew detekt - Run detekt
• ./gradlew lint - Run Android lint
• ./gradlew ktlintCheck - Run ktlint check
• ./gradlew assembleDebug - Build debug APK
