Android Builds: Simple Recipes to Enhance Developer Productivity

Diving into Android build optimizations, this talk revisits seemingly minor adjustments that hold untapped potential for speeding up your build process.

Often overlooked or underestimated, these simple tweaks can be game-changers in enhancing build efficiency. I’ll share insights from my experience at Toast, where basic changes led to significant improvements, reminding you to give these solutions a second glance.

Whether it’s fine-tuning Gradle properties, leveraging incremental builds, or optimizing resource usage, this session aims to highlight the often-skimmed solutions that might just be the key to a faster build.

This session is ideal for developers looking to improve build times and enhance productivity, demonstrating that sometimes the most impactful optimizations are also the most accessible.

Aida shares how the Toast POS app’s developers had lost productivity due to a 44% increase in build/test times over the last two years. She shares how they used Develocity build and test observability to identify low-hanging fruit and pursue wins through improved hardware, better parallelization, improved build caching, better memory management, and an exploration of unused/outdated dependencies. Learn more about how you can leverage Develicity’s build and test observability and acceleration technologies to enhance developer productivity for your apps.
