Overview of the Architecture

UI Layer (Activities/Fragments) <-> Presenter <-> PresenterImpl <-> Data Sources (Local/Remote)
Chosen Architecture
The project follows the MVP (Model-View-Presenter) architecture to ensure separation of concerns and scalability.
Why MVP
- Clear separation of concerns.
- Enhances testability as business logic is decoupled from the UI.
- Simplifies maintenance and scalability.
Key Components and Their Responsibilities
-
Model
- Represents the data layer.
- Handles data operations such as database interactions, API calls, and data processing.
-
View
- Represents the UI layer (Activities, Fragments).
- Displays data and handles user interactions.
- Relies user actions to the Presenter without implementing business logic.
-
Presenter
- Represents the logic layer.
- Acts as a middleman between the View and the Model.
- Fetches data from the Model and updates the View.
Flow of Data
-
Data Flow
- User interacts with the View (e.g., clicks a button).
- The View notifies the Presenter of the user action.
- The Presenter requests data from the Model.
- The Model processes the request and returns the data to the Presenter.
- The Presenter processes the data (if necessary) and updates the View.
-
Example
-
User taps a "Login" button in the View.
-
The View callspresenter.signInOffline(username, password)
-
The Presenter calls model.login(username, password).
-
The Model returns the result, and the Presenter updates the View with success or error messages.
