Since Java 8 release, it is recommended to migrate to Java Date APIs. We still continue to support Android API level 23, is it advisable to continue using Joda in production?

1Opinions will vary, and there are pros and cons. If maintenance includes touching the code currently using Joda-Time, I would consider desugaring and java.time for API levels from 23 and up. – Ole V.V. Jun 17 '22 at 04:37

Yes, need to consider the effort it takes for migration there! – Varsha Kulkarni Jun 17 '22 at 07:15

If what you have works then stick with it. Note that Android only supports a subset of the java.time API, and you have to do a bit of setup to get it working at all.

Good link! I don’t think I agree completely with your first sentence, or it depends for me. – Ole V.V. Jun 17 '22 at 04:48
