asssignmentSonyLiv

This assignment has been given to me for Android developer position at SonyLiv.

This codeis not full functional but can give a context of what I am trying to do.

I would prefer approach 3 of using ML kit which is one time setup and it leads to zero maintainance.

Other two methods leads us to continuous intigration and maintance.

Approach 1 : As described into assignment details My approach is to save localization strings with { "en": { "hello_world": "hello_world_en" } } this Jso format and then retirve it ass file over network I tried to setup components for Localisation and Network communication Addded utility methods to downlaod file and save it into local storage

Approach 2 :

There is a prebuillt library who is doing same stufff https://localazy.com/docs/android/localazy-android-library we can check and make usse of it.

Approach 3 :

We can use Google's ML traslation api It supports 50+ languages. The only draw backk I can see is bloating apk size as each model can take upto 30MB of size into device. https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/mlkit-android-translate#0
