Android XML Views Standards
Priority: P1
Implementation Guidelines
ViewBinding
- Standard: Use ViewBinding for all XML layouts.
- Synthetics:
kotlin-android-extensionsis Dead. Remove it. - KAPT: Avoid DataBinding unless strictly necessary (impacts build speed).
RecyclerView
- Adapter: Always inherit
ListAdapter(wraps AsyncListDiffer). - Updates: Provide a proper
DiffUtil.ItemCallback. NEVER callnotifyDataSetChanged().
Layouts
- ConstraintLayout: Use for complex flat hierarchies.
- Performance: Avoid deep nesting (LinearLayout inside LinearLayout).
Anti-Patterns
- findViewById:
**Deprecated**: Use ViewBinding. - Synthetics:
**Deprecated**: Remove import kotlinx.android.synthetic.*.
