Development Environment

Cinemax uses the Gradle build system and can be imported directly into the latest stable version of Android Studio (available here). The debug build can be built and run using the default configuration.

Once you're up and running, you can refer to the learning journeys below to get a better understanding of which libraries and tools are being used, the reasoning behind the approaches to UI, testing, architecture and more, and how all of these different pieces of the project fit together to create a complete app.

Build

The app contains the usual debug and release build variants.

In addition, the benchmark variant of app is used to test startup performance and generate a baseline profile (see below for more information).

For normal development use the debug variant. For UI performance testing use the release variant.

Architecture

The Cinemax app follows the official architecture guidance and is described in detail in the architecture learning journey.

Modularization

The Cinemax app has been fully modularized and you can find the detailed guidance and description of the modularization strategy used in modularization learning journey.

UI

UI components are designed according to the custom design system and built entirely using Jetpack Compose.

The app has one dark theme that uses predefined colors.

Find out more about the UI architecture here.

Baseline profiles

The baseline profile for this app is located at app/src/main/baseline-prof.txt. It contains rules that enable AOT compilation of the critical user path taken during app launch. For more information on baseline profiles, read this document.

Note: The baseline profile needs to be re-generated for release builds that touch code which changes app startup.

To generate the baseline profile, select the benchmark build variant and run the BaselineProfileGenerator benchmark test on an AOSP Android Emulator. Then copy the resulting baseline profile from the emulator to app/src/main/baseline-prof.txt.
