PYDroid 21

PYDroid is versioned enough to legally drink.

This new release deprecates the BindingUiView interface and moves its ViewBinding related code into the BaseUiView. Long live ViewBinding!

The UiViewModel state is bused using the brand new StateFlow interface which allows it to be easier to maintain and coroutine and thread safe by default. This change is transparent.

This release also adds support for a page about other pyamsoft apps! If you do not have a network connection, or have not allowed the app to connect to the internet, clicking on the "More apps" button in the settings page will still perform the old behavior and route you to the pyamsoft page on the Play store, but as long as you are connected to the internet, it will now load a new page which provides you links to all pyamsoft apps as well as links to their store pages and source code!

This is the first major release in a long time and it will be followed by updates to the pyamsoft android applications. I know, its been a long long time coming - work and life and the coronavirus have all gotten in the way. FridgeFriend is not dead - neither are any of the pyamsoft android applications. I do want to release soon, but FridgeFriend still needs some general UI cleanup and feature implementation to truly be customer ready. Please be patient as always, you'll hear from me again soon.

Stay tuned.
