What you will learn

  • Explain lifecycle and state guarantees without overstating unexecuted evidence.
  1. Own concurrent work with structured coroutines

    Distinguish suspension from blocking and use scopes, launch, async, await, and dispatcher assumptions deliberately.

    Start learning
  2. Preserve cancellation and design failure ownership

    Use cooperative cancellation, finally cleanup, timeout boundaries, and supervision without swallowing lifecycle signals.

    Start learning
  3. Distinguish cold streams from shared current state

    Use Flow transformations and collection while respecting backpressure, context, cancellation, and StateFlow conflation.

    Start learning
  4. Defend the Kotlin and Java boundary

    Handle platform nullability, collection contracts, numeric representation, and Java-facing API shape explicitly.

    Start learning
  5. Protect shared state with the right atomic boundary

    Distinguish visibility, atomic updates, compound invariants, coroutine mutexes, and immutable ownership.

    Start learning
  6. Build a validated reservation pipeline and review its limits

    Combine parsing, value models, sealed outcomes, collection transformation, and explicit execution boundaries in a small offline design.
