Android's Architecture Components Final Version Released

Subscribers now have
access to the final version of Android���s Architecture Components,
in PDF, EPUB, and MOBI/Kindle formats. Just log into
your Warescription page and download
away, or set up an account and subscribe!

I am in the process of wrapping up my books that focused on the first generation
of Android app development (Java and the Android Support Library), in favor
of books focusing on the second generation (Kotlin and Jetpack/AndroidX). The
first of the original books to be marked ���FINAL��� is Android���s Architecture Components.

Many of the topics in Android���s Architecture Components will be covered in
future second-generation books. Of particular note:

ViewModel, LiveData, and Room basics will appear in Elements of Android Jetpack
(ViewModel is there already)

The rest of the Room material will go into a future Elements of Android Room, hopefully
late this year

There were few changes in this ���FINAL��� edition compared to the preceding one:

A lot of little bug fixes

Updated all of the dependencies to the now-current values

Updated the WorkManager chapter to reflect API changes

Removed the coverage of CWAC-SafeRoom, as I have not yet released 1.0.0 of that
library and did not want this book covering the previous versions

Note that all of the ���FINAL��� books will not show changebars or other notations for
what sections changed from their previous one. That is one of the reasons why I am
not making significant changes to these final editions.

If you have questions or concerns regarding this transition from first-generation
to second-generation books, please reach out!.
