GeekNews is an Android reading app for programmers that aggregates content from Zhihu Daily, WeChat news, Gank.io, Juejin, and V2EX in a Material Design interface. It is built as a learning project demonstrating mainstream Android architecture patterns including MVP, RxJava2, Retrofit, Dagger2, Realm, and Glide.

Use cases

  • read tech news from zhihu and juejin in one android app
  • learn mvp architecture with rxjava2 and dagger2 on android
  • browse v2ex and gank.io on my phone
  • study a real-world android app using retrofit and realm
  • find an open-source material design news reader for android

When to choose

  • you want to study how MVP, RxJava2, Retrofit, Dagger2, and Realm fit together in a complete Android app
  • you want a Material Design reading app for Chinese tech news sources like Zhihu Daily and V2EX

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained app - the last release was in 2018 and several APIs it relies on may no longer work
  • you want a production news reader with active support and updates
  • you need a modern architecture like MVVM, MVI, or Jetpack Compose
