Alfonz

Mr. Alfonz is here to help you build your Android app, make the development process easier and avoid boilerplate code.

When I develop Android apps, I often repeat the same code. I use the same utilities or helper classes. I decided to pack these classes into a library and that's how Alfonz was born. Alfonz's grandpa is my collection of templates and utilities.

Alfonz is a multi purpose library split into small modules (something like Android Jetpack). Some of them depend on other modules or 3rd party libraries (RxJava, Retrofit, OkHttp), but in general I try to keep Alfonz simple and independent from other libs as much as possible. Alfonz is written in Java, but it's fully compatible with Kotlin as well.

Modules

• adapter - generic adapters for RecyclerView or ViewPager with data binding support
• arch - base classes for MVVM architecture (based on Architecture Components)
• graphics - utilities for working with bitmaps and drawables
• media - utilities for working with images, sounds and videos
• rest - helper classes for managing REST API calls
• rx - helper classes for managing RxJava observables and subscriptions
• utility - bunch of miscellaneous utilities
• view - collection of custom views and layouts

Samples

Samples can be found in the samples app module. You can also check Stocks project - experimental Android app with MVVM architecture. It uses most of the Alfonz's modules.
