Hi everyone 👋
My name is Tom and I recently decided that it is time to stop procrastinating starting my own products. I have build many products that have never seen the light of day and today I want to change that with DroidLaunch.
I work as an Android Developer full-time and started to notice the amount of time it takes to do repetitive setup for a project, hence I created a boilerplate for myself (and you too!) to make it easier to get started.
Why another boilerplate? Android is changing rapidly with things being deprecated before they even get properly introduced. A lot of the existing boilerplates that I could find were simply out of date by either still using Java, having outdated dependencies or simply containing a lot of deprecated code. My intention with DroidLaunch is to keep using it as my personal boilerplate, that way I will also keep it up-to-date with the latest Android standards to make it the one-stop-shop for an Android boilerplate. I will do this by not only keeping the product up-to-date myself but also by taking requests so that instead of it just being "my boilerplate", it can become the boilerplate of the community!

With the ever changing Android ecosystem, it's important to keep up-to-date with the latest technologies. DroidLaunch helps you do that by providing you with a solid foundation to build your app on.
On top of that, you get lifetime updates which is something that many other boilerplates don't offer.

I use it in all my current projects. It's easy to start and very customisable. Love it so much! I improved the speed of development 2x times by using Tailwind.
Based on our record, Tailwind CSS seems to be more popular. It has been mentiond 882 times since March 2021. We are tracking product recommendations and mentions on various public social media platforms and blogs. They can help you identify which product is more popular and what people think of it.
First of all, as the codebase was quite old and as I didn't want to bring more tech than what was required, I started to migrate my few React components on Gatsby from StyledComponent (a great CSS-in-JS solution) to Tailwind CSS. Mostly because I wanted to see if I could measure the impact of moving from CSS-in-JS to pure CSS. The second goal was to allow Astro to run without client-side JS. To do so, I either... - Source: dev.to / about 23 hours ago
With Tailwind CSS, you can create unique designs without ever leaving your HTML thanks to its utility-first CSS framework, which offers low-level utility classes. - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago
Let us now start creating our dashboard, that we will continue building on in this series. The dashboard is a react app created with create-react-app. For styling we will use Tailwind CSS. - Source: dev.to / 3 days ago
Creating a clone of the YouTube homepage can be both enjoyable and helpful for enhancing your front-end development skills. This project offers a chance to work on a familiar design while getting practical experience with commonly used tools like Tailwind CSS and React.js. It also helps you understand how modern web applications are structured and styled. - Source: dev.to / 3 days ago
