2022 Google I/O
As an Android developer here are my leanings:
Install Android Studio preview canary version to get the new developer features.
Cool Android developer Announcements:
- The integration between Firebase and Android Studio. Now we can see the crashes in our code. before we only get the stack trace and had to search in our code base for that class.
2. Android Studio (Electric Eel | 2022.1.1 Canary 2): Can record the connected android device. cool for demos to show your device and you click.
Running Devices (video) — setting in Android Studio( currently not showing)
3. Android Studio(Electric Eel | 2022.1.1 Canary 2): New Logcat (Google i/o video). Pretty cool color updates to the UI.
4. Pixel watch.
5. Instrumentation test(Google i/o video): Automate test in CI using GitHub Actions. test with headless emulators. Only use emulator without other Google apps (small emulator with no apps, fast)
Cool Android Studio tip:
In Android Studio enable “Action on Save” auto save. Every time you save Android studio will automatically do tasks for you, like: Reformat code, Optimize imports, Rearrange code and Run code cleanup.
New role model Maru!
