For Beginners: App Architecture

This page shall give an overview of the app :)

Current

Currently the app works as follows:

1. Upon boot the BackgroundService fetches all required data from the remote endpoints and stores it using Managers and Room in the local database
2. Activities use the Managers (See Room Database Access for more information about how) to load data from the local database

3. After that, on every application start or reboot the app will check if the data is outdated and eventually replace it.

Future

The aspiration is to also introduce MVVM for all activites to get rid of any data access on the main thread. See Room Database Access for more information
