Course Overview
Foundational and advanced Kotlin Coroutines concepts, Android app applications, Retrofit, Room, MVVM
This is the most complete resource online for learning about Kotlin coroutines.
Coroutines are the hot new topic in Kotlin development. They will impact everything you do, and make your applications multithreaded. Efficiency is the main goal, and with this course you will become an expert in designing multi threaded, parallel applications. This is the best resource you will find online to learn about Kotlin coroutines.
This course will take you step by step, through each concept related to coroutines, discuss it in detail, then apply it in a practical project in Kotlin.
We will cover topics such as:
Scope
Context
Suspending functions
Jobs
Dispatchers
async
withContext
Exception handling
Asynchronous flow
Properties
Flow cancellation
Operators
Buffering
Composing flows
Channels
Producer
Pipelines
Fan-in and fan-out
Buffered channels
Ticker channels
We will go through all these topics and explain them in detail. We will also implement many coding examples to make sure you fully understand and are able to apply the concepts.
In addition, we will also be working on several Android apps to apply the knowledge we learned.
A background image processing app
A network communications app using Coroutines, Retrofit and MVVM
A Room database using coroutines
A news ticker app using Asynchronous Flows, Retrofit and MVVM
This course is great if you want to take your multithreading and parallel processing skills to the next level.

Nice overview of coroutine features and how to put them to use in Android

Overall, the course was good, but it covered mostly the basics. Most topics were explained on a fairly surface level — enough to get a general idea, but not deep enough to fully understand some of the trickier parts of concurrency. The sections on channels were interesting and probably the most engaging part of the course. However, the coverage of Flow felt quite superficial, and I would have liked to see more in-depth examples and real-world patterns. Also, some advanced concurrency nuances were missing — for example, the composition of atomic operations and the need for CAS (compare-and-set) loops in certain scenarios weren’t really discussed. Still, it’s a solid course for beginners who want to get an overview of coroutines.
