| Feature | Koin | Dagger |
|---|---|---|
| Supported Languages | Kotlin | Java, Kotlin |
| Ease of Use | Easy and concise syntax with Kotlin DSL | Requires more boilerplate, especially in Java |
| Code Generation | No code generation | Compile-time code generation for optimized code |
| Type Safety | Runtime reflection | Compile-time type safety |
| Performance | Generally good | Efficient, especially in large projects |
| Scoping | Supports scoping (e.g., singletons) | Advanced scoping options, subcomponents |
| Android Integration | Suitable for Android development | Commonly used in Android development |
| Flexibility | Dynamic runtime dependency resolution | Static, optimized code with compile-time checks |
| Advanced Features | Lightweight, fewer advanced features | Component dependencies, subcomponents, advanced |
When to Use Them:
| Criteria | Koin | Dagger |
|---|---|---|
| Language | Kotlin | Java, Kotlin |
| Project Size | Moderate, smaller projects | Larger, complex projects |
| Ease of Use | Prioritize simplicity and ease of use | Willing to invest in more setup for advanced features |
| Performance | Acceptable performance, runtime reflection | High performance, compile-time code generation |
| Android Development | Suitable and commonly used for Android development | Commonly used in Android development |
| Scoping Requirements | Requires basic scoping (e.g., singletons) | Requires advanced scoping features (e.g., subcomponents) |
| Type Safety | Accept runtime reflection and dynamic dependency resolution | Prefer compile-time type safety and static analysis |
