Hermes is a Java framework for Android that simplifies inter-process communication (IPC) by letting developers invoke methods in another process as if they were local calls. It uses annotation-based interfaces to expose remote classes, singletons, and callbacks, and includes garbage collection for remote instances.

Use cases

  • call methods across Android processes without writing AIDL
  • share a singleton between two processes in an Android app
  • send callbacks from one process to another over IPC
  • simplify Android IPC for developers unfamiliar with Binder
  • post events between processes with HermesEventBus

When to avoid

  • you need a modern, actively maintained IPC solution
  • your project uses Kotlin-first or AndroidX-centric architectures where newer IPC tools fit better
  • you only need simple messaging rather than remote method invocation
