summary
A working Android app compares two NHL goalies by fetching stats from nhl.com (using the site’s exposed API) and demonstrates real techniques: Android data binding for view templates, binding adapters to load images and animate charts, RecyclerView view-holders that hold binding objects, observable fields for live updates, and forms with one- and two-way bindings. Jack compiler currently blocks Java 8 features so lambdas are limited. The example project lives on GitHub and the approach proves practical in production use.
