Kotlin Service for Android Studio

In this project, there are 3 services, 2 of them still work one of them deprecated even before project is made.

1. JobIntentService -> Deprecated

2. Service Service done in this project is a very basic one. The service only be able to run without doing anything otherthan printing some log messages. The service can run with or without input. The input will be printed as log messages as well. Inside the service there is an infinite loop separated in other thread so make sure to stop the service if you want this infinite loop to stop. But don't worry because this infinite loop does nothing as well. The purpose of this infinite loop is to show how to make non UI interfering process inside the service.

3. Foreground service This service is supposed to be a service that gives notification to the phone. The service has a countdown timer and will print the remaining time per some seconds. The service updates the UI according to the remaining time of the timer and will update the notification as well.
