Posted to Java Coding Guidelines over 1 year ago

My only thoughts about android guidelines:
Dividing all the packages for activities/services/fragments/etc may be okay at the beginning but when your application is growing more and more I would rather go for "package by feature" instead of "package by layer". Naming packages like "users" or "posts" makes your app more modular. This makes you able to track (for example) circular dependencies between modules. Additionally, removing some functionality from the app is a lot easier when all the classes related to that specific feature are condensed in one package. Otherwise it's (too) easy to forget about some single fragment/helper/something that is not needed anymore.
Anyway, it's rather hard to disagree with anything else, especially the java-in-general guidelines so great thanks to you guys. :-)
