Android Development
We develop native Android applications in Kotlin using Jetpack Compose and the Android Jetpack library suite, targeting phones, tablets, and Wear OS devices. Our Android builds follow Material Design 3 guidelines and support Android 8.0 (API 26) and above, covering 95%+ of active devices in the Google Play ecosystem. We use MVVM architecture with ViewModels, Kotlin Coroutines and Flow for asynchronous operations, and Room or SQLite for local persistence. For client projects, we integrate REST APIs with Retrofit, handle image loading with Coil or Glide, and implement dependency injection with Hilt. Our Play Store submission process includes automated release signing, staged rollouts starting at 5% of users, and crash monitoring via Firebase Crashlytics. Typical Android projects run 8-14 weeks, with internal testing track APKs available by week 4 for early client review.
Build native Android apps in Kotlin using Jetpack Compose for declarative UI and XML layouts where legacy compatibility is needed.
Architect applications with MVVM pattern, Jetpack ViewModels, and Kotlin Coroutines with Flow for reactive, lifecycle-aware data streams.
Implement Room database for structured local storage with offline-first capabilities and WorkManager for reliable background data synchronization.
Integrate REST APIs using Retrofit with OkHttp interceptors for authentication token management, request logging, and automatic retry logic.
Follow Material Design 3 guidelines for consistent theming, dynamic color support, and adaptive layouts across phone, tablet, and foldable form factors.
Support Android 8.0+ (API 26+) and test on 10+ physical and emulated device configurations covering major manufacturers (Samsung, Pixel, OnePlus).
Configure Google Play Console with staged rollouts (5% initial), automated release signing, and pre-launch reports for device compatibility screening.
Implement Firebase services: Crashlytics for crash monitoring, Analytics for usage tracking, Cloud Messaging for push notifications, and Remote Config for feature flags.
Set up dependency injection with Hilt, navigation with Jetpack Navigation Component, and image loading with Coil for efficient memory management.
Write unit tests with JUnit and Mockk, UI tests with Espresso and Compose Testing, integrated into GitHub Actions CI for automated quality gates.
