Why Store?
Store is designed to simplify data management in modern applications. It provides an architecture for handling data flow between network, memory cache, and local storage, ensuring consistency, efficiency, and scalability.
Unified and Efficient Data Management
Store acts as a single source of truth for your application’s data, streamlining how you fetch, cache, and update data across different layers.
Unified Data Flow
Coordinate data seamlessly between network, memory cache, and local storage through a single interface. Store automatically manages data synchronization and caching strategies, improving performance and reducing development effort.
Smart Caching
Leverage intelligent caching with automatic memory management and persistent storage. Store optimizes data access by serving data from memory when possible, falling back to disk, and fetching from the network only when necessary, enhancing performance and reducing latency.
Full CRUD Support
Handle all data operations with MutableStore’s complete CRUD support. Create, read, update, and delete data with automatic synchronization between local and remote sources, simplifying data management and reducing boilerplate code.
Flexible Data Conversion
Transform data seamlessly between network, local storage, and domain models using Store’s Converter. Maintain a clean separation between data layers while ensuring type safety, enhancing code maintainability and readability.
Powerful Data Synchronization
Keep your local and remote data in sync with Store’s comprehensive synchronization capabilities.
Offline-First Architecture
Build reliable offline-first applications with automatic conflict resolution and synchronization. Store tracks local changes and can ensure they’re properly synchronized when connectivity is restored.
Request Deduplication
Optimize network usage with automatic request deduplication. Store prevents redundant network calls by sharing responses among multiple requesters and managing request lifecycles efficiently, reducing bandwidth usage and improving performance.
Conflict Resolution
Handle data conflicts gracefully with built-in conflict resolution strategies. Store’s Bookkeeper tracks failed synchronizations and enables smart resolution of concurrent modifications, maintaining data integrity and consistency.
Flexible Data Validation
Define custom validation rules to ensure data freshness and integrity. Store’s Validator component lets you implement domain-specific validation logic to determine when data needs refreshing, ensuring users always see up-to-date information.
Reactive and Responsive Applications
Build responsive applications with Store’s reactive architecture and robust error handling.
Real-Time Updates
Receive real-time updates when data changes, whether from the network, cache, or local storage. Store leverages Kotlin Flow to automatically manage data streams and keep your UI in sync, enhancing user engagement and interactivity.
Thread-Safe Operations
Perform concurrent operations safely with Store’s built-in thread safety mechanisms. Handle multiple readers and writers without worrying about race conditions or data corruption, ensuring data integrity and stability.
Loading State Management
Track loading states automatically with Store’s built-in loading indicators. Know exactly when data is being fetched, cached, or synchronized, allowing you to provide immediate feedback to users and enhance the user experience.
Graceful Error Handling
Handle errors gracefully with Store’s comprehensive error management. Network failures, data conversion issues, and validation errors are handled predictably without crashing your application, improving reliability and user trust.
Production-Ready At Any Scale
Store is designed to handle the complexities of modern application development at any scale.
Modular Architecture
Build and customize your data layer with Store’s modular components. Mix and match Fetchers, Updaters, Validators, and other components to create solutions tailored to your needs, providing flexibility and extensibility.
Integration-Friendly
Easily integrate Store with popular libraries and frameworks like Retrofit, Room, SQLDelight, and more, enhancing compatibility and simplifying implementation in your existing architecture.
Kotlin Multiplatform Support
Utilize Store across different platforms (Android, iOS, JVM, JS) with shared business logic, reducing development time and effort, and ensuring consistent behavior across platforms.
Community and Support
Backed by a vibrant community, supported by the Kotlin Foundation, and maintained by the Mobile Native Foundation, ensuring ongoing development, support, and a wealth of shared knowledge.
