I've recently been dabbling with the new android studio 2.x and It has improved considerably in the past 3 months. For a single application all I need is: - A main activity where I commit fragments to show stuff - A settings activity foryouknowwhat - A main application class to store all the data and state - Some model classes for downloading/parsing/storing/data - A service that can be used from my main activity and notification manager I've been at it for a few months and the experience hasn't been as terrible as described. (Yes I do have async tasks that update the UI)
