Intent MVI is a derivation of the original MVC architectural pattern. Instead of working with a proactive controller MVI works with the reactive component called intent: it’s a component which translates user input events into model updates.
Explanation MVI is a Reactive Architecture Pattern which is short for Model -View-Intent. It introduces two new concepts: the intent and the state. UI might have different states — Loading State, Fetch Data State, Error State, and user events are submitted in the form of an Intent.
