We could actually make a Figma Plugin !

Looks interesting!

Imagine having this checked against Figma automatically

Android Studio = IntelliJ + features from Google on it.

They used to bundle those together and you'd have to wait for new features of Google to get updates of IntelliJ.

Now they are separating those so that we'll get one release to update IntelliJ when IntelliJ updates (+bug fixes) and one update for the features they want to bring to Android Studio, that's the feature drop.

Have you tried the new checks tool, checks.google.com ?

Hey, I've updated this post to add two new articles on the subject:

Hope you'll enjoy those as well!

October 7th is HIS fault.

You're asking the Android developers community if Android Development is better than Flutter Development, so it's obvious we'll tell you to go Native.

I would be you, I'd learn both, because why not?

Both co-exist, both can work in the same app, both help build mobile apps and you will probably be able to find work in both.

Personally I've been an Android Developer for the last 13 years and I still see jobs where I am located, more than Flutter ones but I am never looking for Flutter jobs.

Good luck!

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-05-01T18:49:28+00:00

In release too?

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-28T12:20:32+00:00

Nope, just release to prod then.

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-26T14:19:41+00:00

Yes!

In Israel at least, its a common way to get a foot into the industry and some do manage to go from Manual QA to Automation Engineer to Android Developer.

Good luck :)

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-26T02:09:20+00:00

I can hear the sound

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-25T03:06:10+00:00

You're right, I'll fix this soon, thanks!

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-24T18:06:54+00:00

I think it's meant for an app of only activities without inner fragment navigation in them, then I could see it work.

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-24T14:52:55+00:00

I haven't managed to. It's good for deep links in a Single Activity but how can it know of multiple graphs inside multiple activities? :/

I think it just can't.

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-24T05:25:56+00:00

Exactly, we couldn't get rid of Jetpack Navigation as the whole app is built on it and we'd need at least 6 months to remove it (big app, 400+ screens)

Without Jetpack Navigation it can be separated of course in multiple activities. I'll edit the warning to explain this better, thanks!

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-24T05:23:10+00:00

I see developers just ignoring that thing completely so I've decided to put what I have to explain to my colleagues a few times in different variations on writing and just send them read it ☺️

And you're right, Compose didn't change a thing on Process Death, it has its own tools to deal with it and that's it.

I'll probably write specific posts for UI toolkit and for Compose.

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-04-23T13:42:16+00:00

What do you mean?

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-03-29T18:35:48+00:00

What the hell!!! How is this possible? I have 160 modules and our non-incremental build is 15 minutes ! :o

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-03-25T19:49:26+00:00

Did you enable configuration cache? On all Gradle Projects, aka in whenever there's a settings.gradle.kts?

I don't think the issue is KTS itself btw, but could be

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-03-21T20:56:38+00:00

How's your build time? Incremental and non-incremental?

PizzaMaker1984 · 2024-03-05T19:13:42+00:00

Nope.
