Finally, we will look at how we can split the presentation layer across multiple library modules. In the exercises of this chapter, we will integrate the layers built in the previous chapters with a presentation layer built using MVVM, we will create a presentation layer that will plug into the domain layer to fetch and update the data, and we will also look at how we handle common logic between different modules in the presentation layer.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
