Dagger + Anvil: Learning to Love Dependency Injection
Droidcon SF - June 2022
Abstract
Anvil is a Kotlin compiler plugin that makes dependency injection with Dagger 2 easier. Anvil reduces boilerplate code, improves code modularization, reduces build times, and enables custom code generators to further simplify patterns specific to your codebase.
In this talk we will explain why Square created Anvil, how Tonal successfully adopted it, how the plugin works under the hood, what code is being generated and how you can get the most out of the framework.
