Hey all, long time no speak. I hear this is where all the AI talk is happening these days!
@stevejenkinsyo and I just spoke at #AndroidDevSummit on Agentic Engineering with Claude Code and Android CLI. It's a whole new era of Android development!

At #AndroidDevSummit we spoke about all the latest features in Compose and Android Platform for graphics! 💚
One of the features I'm most excited about is the new API in Platform version 37.2 - RenderNode.setBackdropRenderEffect & createChainEffect.
These APIs unlock a lot of exciting effects, like frosted glass effects, progressive blur backdrops, or even a fun kaleidoscope effect.
The limit to how you transform a backdrop is now limited to your imagination as you can pass in any shader your heart desires 🥰
The recording of our talk is now available ⬆️

I got to share the news yesterday at ADS that just in the last 2 months the usage of Android CLI has grown 10x and shows no indications of slowing down. These additional commands are only going to make it even more attractive to developers and their agents.
🚀 A massive batch of new commands landed in Android CLI 💻, just in time for Android Dev Summit!
Render Compose Previews to PNG & JSON (android preview) 🎨
Investigate crashes and ANRs via Crashlytics (android signals) 🐛
Record system traces & heap dumps (android profiler) ⚡
Inspect APKs, DEX & R8 (android analyze) 📦
Plus a fresh release of Android skills for many areas, including ML Kit Agent API, Jetpack Ink, Glance, and more 😌
