A simple demo app to test out the new Paging V3 Library released by Google as part of the Architectural Components. The app consist of a simple List of infinite images displayed in 3 columns, which are loaded base on a search query, using the public Flickr API.

Before running the app, please remember to add your Flick API KEY to the file FlickrApi inside the method getFlickApiKey (Link to File). To get a Flickr API Key follow the instructions of this link.

/**
 * Returns the API KEY used for authentication with the Flickr API.
 */
fun getFlickApiKey() : String {
    return "PASTE_YOUR_FLICKR_API_KEY_HERE"
}

• Written 100% in Kotlin.

• Uses Dagger for dependency injection.
• Uses Leak Canary to detect Memory Leaks.
• Uses Picasso for image loading and caching.
• Uses Coil-kt for image loading and caching in the Compose Activity.
• Uses Retrofit for networking with Gson Converter.
• Uses Pagination V3 from the Google's Jetpack Components in coordination with Retrofit's Coroutine support.
