HTTP in a Hostile World

I presented this at Droidcon Toronto on November 13, 2019.

Available as video, slides, YouTube, & Speaker Deck.



Networking on Android is difficult work. We need to display fresh data and rich media while limiting our network use. Unfortunately cookie-cutter solutions are not acceptable.

In this talk we’ll:

🥌 Verify that you’re using HTTPS securely
🥌 Acknowledge possible connectivity problems
🥌 Get performance tips
🥌 Code for maintainable APIs
🥌 Mock programmers that don’t test their networking

The body of this talk will be using HTTP effectively.
