Does your app work offline? How much of your users' session time is spent watching a loading indicator? What differentiates your Native App from a Web App?

This talk will demonstrate a new and advanced way to cache your data in your app using Kotlin Flow and provide your users with a user experience that enables them to interact with your app while they are disconnected from the backend. The session will involve an explanation as to why this idea is novel, a demonstration of the idea in action, and finally a brief code walkthrough of the implementation itself.
