We just released ALL the Android #GoogleIO talks. Check out What's New in Android for a guided tour—or tl;dw of all 32 talks. 🦮🍿 youtube.com/watch?v=Z6iFhc…

Mandatory adaptive layouts are coming for large screens (sw ≥ 600dp). 📱 Android 17 removes the developer opt-out for orientation and resizability restrictions on larger devices. Your app must be ready to adapt to different aspect ratios and window sizes.

@3an3i Oh interesting. Did not measure that. cc @crafty @riggaroo

Howzit 👋 2024 is my 10th year of working-professionally-for-other-people. After careful consideration (i.e. lots of overthinking) I've decided it's time to take the somewhat scary next step of going solo.

Thank you for everyone attending my Droidcon SF talk yesterday! I live coded through 3 custom layouts to achieve adaptive behavior, and they're now available in gist form:

🧪🖼️Very happy to announce that alpha01 of the Compose Preview Screenshot Testing tool is out! There are some features coming later this year, but we'd love to get your feedback on the command-line use cases, performance, compatibility, etc. developer.android.com/studio/preview… More👇

Super excited to finally share my #GoogleIO video on 🫶 designing scalable Compose APIs 🫶 - feedback is always welcome! Now I'm off to watch the other IO vids that just got out 😏🤙 youtube.com/watch?v=JvbyGc…

@chethaase @Ben_Kadel @askashdavies @keyboardsurfer I tagged you in the picture—there's a very Chet-esque droid in there 🤨

@crafty @Ben_Kadel @askashdavies @keyboardsurfer Meanwhile, I'm not sure why I'm in this conversation: no pins and not going to I/O. I mean, I've heard of Android, but that's about it. Stirring up FOMOOP?

Dear all conferences this year... Urgent Request... I have a sexy collection of pins, BUT there is empty space for more! Please can all dev conferences ensure they have pins as swag that I can add to my collection! If not, I'll be sad & you don't wanna make me sad right? 😢🥺

@Ben_Kadel @askashdavies @keyboardsurfer @chethaase 🤫🤫🤫

@askashdavies @keyboardsurfer @crafty @chethaase @askashdavies @crafty and I are maybe cooking something up ... Maybe ;) ;) will keep you posted if something happens

@Ben_Kadel @chethaase I'll be at I/O next week & then also at I/O Connect Berlin in June. We could work something out—they're not doing any good sitting in my drawer.

@crafty @chethaase Orrr what conf you coming to next, maybe a little competition where i could try my damnedest to win some? hahaha

@Ben_Kadel @chethaase oh that's the 'mother of dragons' one, quite a few GoT fans on the team!!

@crafty @chethaase What is this amazing pin?!?!

@Ben_Kadel @chethaase what a tempting offer?!?! 💪

@crafty @chethaase Omg @crafty literally I'd offer you my left arm! What's your shipping address your about to get a genuine human arm... Heard they sell well on the black market... How do I acquire these pinssssss?!?!?!

@Ben_Kadel @chethaase Mobile World Congress. Oh apparently there are 86 pins! I haven't gotten them out of my drawers for a decade!! #android-pins-collect-all-86-22" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">businessinsider.com/google-booth-m…

@crafty @chethaase Ps what is MWC?
