Hey! Are you searching for how to play videos like Instagram, TikTok, or LinkedIn in Android?

demo-insta.mov

Instagram-Feed-Compose is a Jetpack Compose-based Android project designed to replicate the Instagram feed experience. If you're looking for an Instagram feed clone that incorporates modern UI practices and efficient media handling, this project is a perfect fit.

Features

  • Jetpack Compose: Utilizes Jetpack Compose for a modern, declarative UI approach.
  • ExoPlayer Integration: Employs ExoPlayer for seamless video playback. Videos play based on their visibility percentage on the screen; videos with more than 30% visibility are played, with the most visible video prioritized.
  • Kotlin: Developed entirely in Kotlin for a streamlined and robust experience.
  • Customizable Feed:
    • Feed Data: Modify the local feed_data.json file to include your own video and image links. This enables you to customize the content of the feed to suit your needs.
  • URL-Based Video/Image:
    • Non-Local Media: Videos and images themselves are not stored locally; only their URLs are provided in the JSON file. This setup ensures that media is fetched and displayed from external sources, rather than being embedded within the app.
  • **AutoPlay Videos

Setup

  1. Clone the Repository

    git clone https://github.com/yourusername/Instagram-Feed-Compose.git

  2. Open the Project

    Open the project in Android Studio.

  3. Modify Feed Data

    Edit the feed_data.json file located in src/main/assets/ to include your own video and image URLs. Ensure the JSON includes the aspect_ratio for each media item to maintain consistent post sizes. This prevents posts from fluctuating in size after loading videos or images.

  4. Build and Run

    Build and run the project on an Android device or emulator.

Usage

  • Home Feed: Swipe through the feed to view various media items.
  • Video Playback: Videos play based on their visible percentage on the screen. The project is configured to play videos with more than 30% visibility. This threshold is controlled by the minimumVisibilityPercentageRequiredToPlayVideo variable, and the video that is the most visible will be prioritized for playback.
  • Interactive Elements: Use the like, comment, and share buttons to interact with the content.
