GLOBAL CONSTANTS
Kotlin allows you to define constants that span across an entire app in one place (if applicable). Typically, constants should have their scope reduced as much as possible, but when scope needs to be global this is a great way to do so without having to go through a constants class.
import android.support.annotation.StringDef
// Note that this is not a class, or an object
const val PRESENTATION_MODE_PRESENTING = "presenting"
const val PRESENTATION_MODE_EDITING = "editing"
These can be used as constants anywhere in your project:
Keep in mind that constants should be kept to as small a scope as possible to reduce complexity. If you have a value that only relates to the user class, put the value there in a companion object instead.
