A badly written code is a NIGHTMARE (when needed to maintain). For any developer there is nothing better than having a clean, structured code. And if you want to achieve this, you must follow a design pattern for your projects. So this Android MVVM Tutorial is for all the people out there who learned the basics of android development and now want to learn something advanced. Because if you are seeking a JOB then knowing only the basics are not enough. You should know some design patterns.

What is MVVM?
MVVM stands for Model View ViewModel and it is a design pattern that is used to build softwares. But here our focus is only about Android App Development. MVVM helps us to separate the Business Logic of our Application from the Views or UI. And doing this thing is very important in case of any kind of software or app development.
Model : This is responsible for handling the data in the application. Model cannot directly interact with Views, but it interacts with ViewModels and then Views with the help of observables. (Sounds confusing right? Don’t worry in the course we will cover every step in detail).
View: This is the User Interface of our Application. It should not contain any application logic.
ViewModel: It is basically a link between Model and View.
MVVM in Android
When we want to use MVVM in Android, we use this architecture.
One more thing is involved here and that is the Repository. So repository is responsible for handling the data. Repository may use multiple data sources according to the need, it may fetch data from a Remote Source or from the local storage.
Advantages of using MVVM
Now let’s talk about what are the advantages of using MVVM in your android project.
- If you use MVVM it will help you structuring your code in a nice way so that it is easy to understand for a new developer.
- Using MVVM makes your project maintainable as everything is well organized and making changes are very easy.
- Testability is easy with MVVM because all modules are independent and testable.
- MVVM enhances the re-usability of the code.
Pre-Requisites of this Course
This course contains many advanced topic like creating repositories, dependency injection, data binding etc. And that is why this course is not for any beginner who just started learning android development. But if you sure you know the basics very well then you can give it a start.

“I get an error ” – Could not resolve enqueue – MyApi().userLogin(email,password).enqueue()
I’m learning mvvm pattern now by watching your tutorial on YouTube but I’m having challenges with your baseUrl…I would like to know if that api is still up and running/valid
There was a problem for few days, but now its working fine you can check.
Hello bro, I trust you are doing ok.
Thanks for your video on using mvvm architecture.
It was very helpful.
I’m currently using it as a template on one of my projects.
Please I have a little issue when using the Authviewmodel and repository in getting access to a view.
I’m using the country picker library, and I would like to access the country code directly from the Authviewmodel class so that I can pass the code to the the UserRepository to make an API call.
I’ve been on this for 2 whole days, I think if I can get access to any view from the viewmodel I can instantiate the country code picker class and proceed.
Please I would really appreciate any help.
Thanks so much
Cannot watch your videos anymore as its telling to login using G suite Account. Please provide some solutions to this.
Sorry I didn’t get you, can you explain exactly whats happening?
Hello could you provide me source code as well. That will be very helpful
The source code link is already given in the post.
You have handled a success response but you did not handle error properly. what if an exception occurs here
private suspend fun fetchQuotes() {
val lastSavedAt = prefs.getLastSavedAt()
if (lastSavedAt == null || isFetchNeeded(LocalDateTime.parse(lastSavedAt))) {
try {
val response = apiRequest { api.getQuotes() }
quotes.postValue(response.quotes)
} catch (e: Exception) {
e.printStackTrace()
}
}
}
How will you convey to through the view?
You can handle the error in catch block.
