Small example app to showcase my Android dev skills.
Astroviewer allows you to view pictures that the NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day web service provides. Each day a different image or photograph of our fascinating universe is featured, along with a brief explanation written by a professional astronomer, as they say.

To do
- Migrate Details to Flow ✅
- Improve Details UI state management ✅
- Visual feedback for button clicks (reconsider global disabling of ripple effect) ✅
- Simplify naming for various types ✅
- Let users mark pictures as favourite & save favourites locally ✅
- Create cool animation for "Mark as Favourite" icon
- Use streams of data (from Room to UI) instead of one-shot requests where possible (observe data instead of requesting it)
- Use common top and bottom bars in Scaffold. Find an elegant way to customize from each screen. WIP on common-app-bars branch.
- Fixes for various edge cases
