DataRepository

A DataRepository acts as a bridge between the application and its data sources like databases or APIs.

It handles tasks related to accessing and managing data, providing a simplified interface for the rest of the application to interact with.

By abstracting away the complexities of data storage, it ensures that the application's core logic remains independent of specific data sources.

This promotes organization and ease of maintenance while allowing for flexibility in adapting to changes in data sources.

Current code

class DataRepository(
    private val source: Source = DataSource()
): Repository {
    override fun getPlatform() = source.getPlatform()
}

getPlatform

override fun getPlatform() = source.getPlatform()

The getPlatform() function retrieves platform-specific information using the source data source.

It delegates the task of obtaining platform details to the source object, which is typically an instance of the DataSource class.

This approach allows the DataRepository to remain agnostic to the specific implementation details of the data source, promoting modularity and flexibility in the codebase.

The getPlatform() function ensures that the repository provides consistent access to platform information, regardless of the underlying data source being used.
