Kotlin and Android Development featuring Jetpack

Create Another ViewModel (Game)

This class will look similar to PickPlayersViewModel on a high level, but there’s going to be a lot more going on here since this will handle the connection between the Game view and the GameHandler we’ll be building in Chapter 4, ​Update LiveData with Conditional Game Logic​.

We’re going to start with an empty GameViewModel class, and we can add the pieces in later on. It’ll look like this:

package dev.mfazio.pennydrop.viewmodels

import androidx.lifecycle.ViewModel

class GameViewModel: ViewModel() {
  //Logic will go in here.
}

Once GameViewModel is available, we can add a List<Player> to hold everyone we added in the Pick Players view. We’ll need a little setup before we can do that, though. ...
