Agenda

4:00 PM	Welcome
4:10 PM	Comparing Jetpack Compose and SwiftUI: Fun with Declarative UIs - Peter John Welcome & Pamela Hill	Declarative UIs are a hot 🔥 topic right now, whether you're in #team-android 🤖 with Jetpack Compose or #team-apple 🍎 with SwiftUI. Join Peter-John and Pamela to learn: - What declarative UIs are 🤔 - The basics of creating a Netflix clone with Compose and SwiftUI in an epic live-coding battle of the toolkits 📚 - When to adopt ⏳ - Best practices for successful toolkit adoption 👨🏽‍🏫👩🏻‍🏫
4:50 PM	The Benefits of StateFlow and SharedFlow over LiveData - Andrey Liashuk	The main innovations in the release 1.4.0 of the Kotlin Coroutines library were StateFlow and SharedFlow. They are intended to be used when a state should be managed in the context of asynchronous operations using Kotlin Coroutines. In this talk, the benefits of StateFlow and SharedFlow over LiveData will be analysed. We will also try to answer the question: is it worth migrating at all?
5:30 PM	ConstraintLayout2 helpers: Flow - Fidelity Chauke	An introduction to ConstraintLayout Flow, a less talked about but really powerful tool in the current UI kit. The talk will seek to answer some of the important questions around helpers and virtual layouts.
5:50 PM	Survey and Goodbye
