High quality programming courses: codingwithmitc...
In this video I take you through your first kotlin coroutines example.
If you are complete beginner when it comes to coroutines and want to see what they're all about, this is the video for you.
The main goal of coroutines is to "simplify asynchronous work by getting rid of callbacks." Coroutines are NOT threads. I like to think of coroutines as JOBS. And each "job" may contain "child jobs". Jobs that can run in any thread. Many coroutines can run in a single thread at once.
They're kind of "like" threads because you can start them up and do work asynchronously, but they aren't threads. Many coroutines can exist and be running in a single thread.
The main dispatchers for building coroutines is:
1) Default (CPU intensive work)
2) Main (UI Interactions)
3) IO (Input/output. ex: network or disk transactions)

This also works for normal Kotlin code outside of Android. Once again, thank you for sharing this video and explaining how coroutines work.

Great! Next timer I think it's better to run the coroutines in the lifeCycleScope or scope one to the current activity/fragment or even better the viewModelScope :)

This is very useful tutorial on running a "multi threaded" application in Android and Kotlin using Coroutines. Very well explained. This is better than Async and other thread related concepts. Thank you very much for sharing. You have explained in 23 odd minutes a concept I have previously not understood in spite of spending hours on tutorials and other videos. Much appreciated.

At 0:29 to 0:32 you say RxJava is used for performing background tasks. I think this is a bit of an understatement. Thread switching is just one part of RxJava. There are hundreds of other operators present in RxJava that allows other functionality besides just Thread Switching. Just wanted to let you know so that thousands of others can benefit. Best part 7:00 to 7:45 The visual representation of thread and co-routine. I watch your content frequently and its absolute quality. Keep up the good work.

@codingwithmitch 4 жыл бұрын

Pretty sure I also said that RxJava has powerful operators. I meant when compared to coroutines. When comparing coroutines with RxJava you're strictly talking about threading. Although thats changing. Looks like coroutines also has operators now and will continue to get more.

I don't know if you mention it in another Coroutine presentation but there is one other difference between CoroutineScope() and withContext(). CoroutineScope() returns a job object withContext() returns the result of the suspend function. So where you would need to use job::invokeOnCompletion() in order to access results you would be able to direction access the result using withContext()
