## What it is
A starter template Android application that implements Clean architecture with pre-written boilerplate for views, presenters, and interactors across presentation, domain, and storage layers. It is written in plain Java (deliberately avoiding RxJava and Dagger) and comes pre-wired with libraries like Retrofit, Timber, Butterknife, JUnit, and Mockito.

## Use cases
- start an android app using clean architecture
- android clean architecture starter template
- boilerplate project for building an android app with mvp
- skeleton android app already structured with presenters and interactors
- learn clean architecture on android with a working example
- java android template without rxjava or dagger

## When to choose
- You want a ready-made Android project structure following Clean architecture so you can start writing business logic immediately
- You prefer plain Java without the added complexity of RxJava or Dagger
- You want a learning reference for Clean architecture, since the author provides a detailed written guide

## When to avoid
- You need Kotlin, AndroidX, or current Android tooling - the template targets API 15+ and was last released in 2016
- You want an RxJava/Dagger-based Clean architecture setup, for which the Android-CleanArchitecture project is a better fit
- You need an actively maintained foundation with up-to-date dependencies for a production app
