Simple MVI Architecture for Android

on YouTube ↗36m

" summary

Concrete MVI implementation using Kotlin and RxJava: immutable data classes, reducers, scan + replay to hold state, and mapping view events to intents via extension functions; uses PublishRelay, concatMap of reducer observables for sequential processing, Retrofit for REST calls and Toothpick for DI. Includes a runnable to‑do sample app and a live demo that exercises button clicks and reducer breakpoints; two prior app versions were built (v1 and a Kotlin MVI v2). Note: screen capture is missing for the first few minutes.
