Decent submission, consider adding more challenging bonus stories. A few notes after checking out the code:
- Good to see you were able to format the timestamp cleanly
- Good to see you refreshed the timeline after composing a new tweet
- Consider adding the character count for Compose Activity to limit to 140.
- Consider adding pull to refresh for the home timeline using the SwipeRefreshLayout
- Consider adding progress bars to your app whenever a network request goes out
- Consider adding
ActiveAndroid
to the Tweet and User. See the persistence guide and this other guide for more details. - Consider better organizing your source files
