In this Developer Productivity Engineering meetup, we will talk to Aurimas Liutikas from Google Android SDK team to get the Lowdown on how AndroidX does Developer Productivity Engineering with Gradle Enterprise. The Google AndroidX team recently set up Gradle Enterprise to gain greater insights into their build and test process that will make developers running those builds more productive. This effort was a means to foster more community engagement and to help external developers who contribute to their complex open-source projects be more productive. AndroidX is a collection of open-source libraries geared towards Android app developers to make their lives easier. AndroidX has replaced the original Android Support Libraries and is used to develop, test, and package, version, and release libraries within Jetpack.

In this Developer Productivity Engineering meetup, we will talk to Adam McCormick from Meta’s FARE team (Facebook Mobile Apps Reliability Engineering) to get the Lowdown on how Meta does Developer Productivity Engineering. Meta (formerly Facebook) may be solving the hardest software productivity problem in the world today. The company operates at “human scale,” with the Facebook app alone serving 2.9B active monthly users. In addition to building all of their own release tools, Meta manages all the code from Meta’s most well-known apps—Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp, and Portal— from one massive monorepo.
