Archtecture Components

Overview

Slate Kit offers several features designed as modular Architecture components. These are designed as a collection of Kotlin libraries that help you to quickly build fully featured, testable, and scalable applications on the JVM. Several of the modules can be used for both Server and Android. Click any of the modules below for more info.

Install

Many of these modules have their own project. See the guides for each respective project for more info. However, below is a quick sample of a gradle setup. 

     
    repositories {
        maven { url  "https://dl.bintray.com/codehelixinc/slatekit" }
    }

    dependencies {
        // For results ( modeling success/failures with optional status codes )
        compile 'com.slatekit:slatekit-results:1.0.0'

        // For app ( application template with args, cli, envs, logs, help )
        compile 'com.slatekit:slatekit-app:1.0.0'
    }
