Dagger 2: Dependency Injection in Android

What Is Dagger 2 (Deep Definition)?

Dagger 2 is a fully static, compile-time dependency injection framework for Java and Android. It’s designed to generate code for injecting dependencies efficiently, without reflection, and with strong type safety.

Unlike reflection-based DI frameworks (like Guice or Spring), Dagger 2 works by generating source code for your dependency graph, making it:

  • Extremely performant
  • Fail-fast (errors are caught during compilation)
  • Easy to debug (generated code is readable)
