Compose Stability Analyzer 0.7.3 introduces the runtime Compoes state tracking. By adding the `TraceRecomposition` annotation to your composable function, you can trace all the parameters and in-body Compose states in the logcat. skydoves.github.io/compose-stab...

Someone just shared, out of the blue, my project on another social media! That is the first time it ever happened and I was so happy to see that! Sometimes I wonder if I should ever keep working on it, if ever people are using it or not. It felt heartwarming seeing that, tbh!

Metro is so good! If you haven't tried yet, I strongly suggest you to!! I wish IntelliJ allowed non-bundled K2 compiler plugins to contribute their FIR checkers to the IDE so we could see diagnostics in real-time. Perhaps a Metro IntelliJ plugin could bridge the gap until then

I've just released the website for CLI/Gradle Plugin code, built using KMP! It also features a playground editor where you can convert your SVGs without needing to download anything! And the best is that everything runs locally on your browser! svgtocompose.tonholo.dev #AndroidDev #KMP

Why Compose HotSwan 🦢 It explains how Compose HotSwan brings true Hot Reload to Android, avoiding rebuilds and app restarts. It enables instant UI updates on a running app while preserving state, improving development speed. hotswan.dev/docs/how-it-...

Another tweak.

One of the biggest gems of Compose Hot Reload is the ability to simulate animation variations directly on real Android devices. hotswan.dev/docs/support...

I can't believe that I will attend KotlinConf this year 😱

I NEED THIS SO MUCH!

Just published "Scoping ViewModels in Compose". marcellogalhardo.dev/posts/scopin... #AndroidDev #Kotlin #KMP #CMP

Today I’m open-sourcing Dejavu! Testing UI performance in Jetpack Compose is frustrating. We profile and watch tools, yet regressions still creep in. I built Dejavu to make recomposition behavior something you can actually test.

🎙️Check out the new @fragmentedpodcast.com episode on subagents! They can be a huge unlock once you understand how it all works and you can get real benefits without having to a swarm them. @kau.sh and I built an RTS mental model for how they work (yes, we did that). Check it out!

new episode is out! spot the easter 🥚? recent models have shown massive improvement owing to clever use of "modes" and subagent dispatch. it really clicked for me after chatting with @iurysouza.dev listen to improve your fundamentals! (not just tactics).

As I need to support IntelliJ IDEA in a project I work on, I always try to find what is the latest AGP version compatible with IntelliJ IDEA, but it is very difficult to find information about it.

I've upgraded to the last @androidstudio.bsky.social stable version and suddenly started to experience a few issues. The most annoying is the debugger randomly throwing Stack Overflow. If you are experiencing the same, please consider voting for this issue: issuetracker.google.com/issues/45229...

I turned a leak investigation into a post on the Block eng blog to share a method that works well! It's a bit long... I had to show how to encode code knowledge to automate leak investigations, and dig even deeper with YourKit Java Profiler. engineering.block.xyz/blog/the-lea... #AndroidDev

Working on a plugin that provides real-time stability analysis for Jetpack Compose functions in Android Studio.

If you're a senior+ developer and your GitHub looks like this.... I assume you have some mixture of positive work life balance, a spouse and children, and hobbies outside of coding. What I don't assume is anything about your ability to write great software.

Your GitHub history can look like this, and it’s ok. If you know you can do a job, apply. I've met so many great devs that weren't active on GitHub publicly. We need to understand that not everybody prioritizes side projects, for many reasons. And that does not invalidate them for the job, at

Open-sourced my Android-in-VS-Code experiment. A Gradle plugin that generates workspace files for Kotlin LSP. Many things don't work, but some do 😅 github.com/desugar-64/k... #AndroidDev #VSCode

There's no good reason why people distributing apps outside the Play Store should need to provide their personal data to Google. This is just taking Android into the horrible world of dev accounts and notarization that Apple enforces.

I was excited to upgrade a project I work to Kotlin 2.2.0 as it turns when-guards stable and I would be able to remove the annoying warning: "This build uses unsafe internal compiler arguments: --XXLanguage:+WhenGuards" Android Studio: Nope.
