Hey devs 👋
I recently built a full-featured note-taking app using Kotlin and Jetpack Compose.
Then I realized — why not document the entire process and turn it into a free course for others who are learning Android development?
So I did exactly that. 🚀
🧠 What the App Does
Focus Notes is a simple yet fully functional productivity app with:
✅ Jetpack Compose UI
✅ MVVM architecture
✅ Room Database for local data
✅ Hilt for dependency injection
✅ Material3 theming with dark mode
✅ Clean code and scalable structure

📂 Tech Stack
- Language: Kotlin
- UI: Jetpack Compose (Material3)
- Architecture: MVVM
- Data Layer: Room Database
- Dependency Injection: Hilt
- Navigation: Compose Navigation
🧰 GitHub Repository
I’ve open-sourced the entire project here:
👉 https://github.com/devsoftware116/focus-notes-jetpack-compose
Feel free to clone it, fork it, or explore how everything fits together.
🎓 Free Udemy Course
If you want to build this app from scratch, I’ve also created a free course on Udemy — it covers everything from:
- Setting up Jetpack Compose
- Building UI and managing state
- MVVM, Hilt, Room integration
- Clean architecture and theming
No upsells, no email capture — just pure content.
💬 Why I Made This
Jetpack Compose is powerful but confusing when you first get into it. I struggled with:
- State handling and recomposition
- Navigation across multiple screens
- Injecting ViewModels the right way
That’s why I wanted to make something real, open source it, and explain it all step by step.
