DicioTeam/dicio-android v1.0

v1.0 - Huge refactor

on GitHub

New

• Adopt Material 3 design with black and dynamic themes
• Migrate code to Jetpack Compose and other modern libs
• Faster and more accurate sentence recognition algorithm
• Simpler and more powerful Skill APIs
• Add launcher shortcut to open Speech To Text service

Improved

• [Vosk] Report more status information in STT button:

• Target Android 14 (API 34)
• Group interactions better and add loading box in home screen

Fixed

• [Vosk] Fix Vosk model not downloading on some phones, by ditching Android's DownloadManager and using a network request directly
• Fix various UI crashes thanks to the null safety of Kotlin and to the better Skill APIs design

Development

• Adopt Jetpack Compose for declarative UI
• Use the Model-View-ViewModel architectural pattern to separate business logic from UI code
• Adopt Hilt for Dependency Injection
• Migrate from SharedPreferences to protobuf-backed DataStore
• Move dicio-skill from separate repository to Gradle module :skill in this repo
• Create :sentences-compiler-plugin to generate type-safe Kotlin skill standard recognizer definitions based on skill_definitions.yml and on translated sentences in LANG/SKILL_ID.yml files
• Migrate from Gradle DSL (.gradle) to Kotlin DSL (.gradle.kts)
• Adopt Version Catalog to store the versions of dependencies
• Ditch Jitpack for building other dicio-* libraries, and use me.champeau.includegit instead
