Kotlin coroutines provide an efficient and concise way to handle asynchronous programming. At the heart of coroutines is the concept of dispatchers, which determine where a coroutine will be executed. Dispatchers allow you to specify the thread or context in which a coroutine runs, making it easier to manage concurrency and parallelism in...
In modern applications, especially those involving network requests, file I/O, or complex computations, handling asynchronous operations is essential to maintain responsiveness and performance. Traditionally, developers have used callbacks, threads, futures, and AsyncTask in Android to manage asynchronous tasks. However, these methods...
For many use cases, when you have to perform compute-intensive work, make network calls, or execute some parallel processing, we tend to go with multi-threading. Some temporary threads are spawned to process smaller tasks and merged back to the main request thread post-processing. CompletableFutures CompletableFutures were introduced...
