Created by Lukas Lechner | 9.5 hours on-demand video course
Google recommends Kotlin Coroutines as the preferred solution for asynchronous programming on Android. Sooner or later, probably every Android developer will get in touch with them. This course will provide you with a deep understanding of Kotlin Coroutines and shows how to implement 12+ of the most common use cases for Android applications. At first, we will take a detailed look at the advantages of Kotlin Coroutines over other approaches for asynchronous programming, like RxJava and Callbacks.
