Fetch Data from the Internet in Android Jetpack Compose | Mars App Walkthrough
Ever wondered how Android apps fetch real-time data from the web? In this video, we dive into modern Android networking by building the "Mars App" from the official Android Basics Kotlin Compose codelab.
Connecting to the internet is a fundamental skill for any Android developer. We'll walk step-by-step through setting up a network request to a REST API, parsing the JSON response, and displaying the retrieved data seamlessly in a Jetpack Compose UI. You will learn how to configure Retrofit to communicate with external APIs, manage background tasks with Kotlin Coroutines, and translate JSON into Kotlin data classes using kotlinx.serialization. We'll also cover managing UI states with a ViewModel and adding the necessary internet permissions to your Android Manifest.
