ALT “The decision by Google to add support for Kotlin, I think we underestimate how wild of a notion that was at the time. The odds of another company that size making a similar decision based on community support and enthusiasm is very low.“ (Christina Lee, Android engineer at Pinterest, Kotlin and Android GDE)

A few weeks ago we posted a teaser for a new project we began working on, and we now have more to share.
We are writing a book on Composable Architecture, and we'd like to share the preface to give you an idea of what it's about.
We hope you enjoy!

Hats off to @Pinterest for their leadership combating vaccine misinformation. And, a reminder to all social media platforms that Americans deserve reliable, trusted health information and you have the power to make sure they get it.⬇️

Want to see something *really cool*? 😀

This is backend-driven UIs in <100 lines of code. Will publish all of it very soon 🚀
