MVC (Model View Controller)

This is one of the most widely used approaches in software development. The MVC consists of three main components:

  • Model: The model represents the object in the application. This has the logic of where the data is to be fetched from. This can also have the logic by which the controller can update the view. In Android, the model is mostly represented by object classes.
  • View: The view consists of the components that can interact with the user and is responsible for how the model is displayed in the application. In Android, the view is mostly represented by the XML where the layouts can be designed.
  • Controller: The controller acts as a mediator between the model and the view. It controls the data flow into the model object and updates the view whenever data changes. In Android, the controller is mostly represented by the activities and fragments.
