Mastering SQLDelight Database in Android with Jetpack Compose
Delve into SQLDelight, a robust database library designed for Android projects. You’ll start by setting up SQLDelight in Android Studio and learn to define database schemas using .sq files for type-safe Kotlin mappings. From building tables and queries to managing relationships between entities, you’ll explore key concepts like SQL joins and CRUD operations. Along the way, you’ll implement reactive database interactions with Kotlin Coroutines and Flows, integrate SQLDelight into MVVM architecture with Jetpack Compose, and master techniques for testing and debugging your database. By the end, you’ll have the skills to build scalable, data-driven apps with SQLDelight.
