Super excited to share our latest case study featuring Grab! 🚀
developer.android.com/blog/p…
Tackling performance across a decade-old codebase with 10M+ lines of code isn't an overnight flick of a switch—the Grab team achieved it by rolling out R8 Compat Mode with Startup Profiles, moving to Full Mode, and using the R8 Configuration Analyzer and refining their keep rules to push their optimization scores past 78% alongside strict CI guardrails.
The overall wins across the rollout:
📉 ~32.5% fewer ANRs
📦 ~30% smaller app size
⚡ 35% faster cold startup

We've heard you want better blur support in Compose!
The latest #JetpackCompose alpha introduces Progressive Blur for layers - allowing you to apply a non-uniform blur to your content (not backdrop just yet 😉) ! You can apply vertical, horizontal, radial gradients or even a custom blur intensity mask driven by a shader. 🪄
Available for API 33+
With Compose 1.13, progressive blur is arriving that ramps across an axis instead of hitting everything uniformly.
This opens up some interesting possibilities for more expressive UI effects in Compose.

This comment made my day.
When I started making making system design videos, I wasn't sure if it would resonate with people or not but turns out, there are engineers who want to understand the why, not just the how :D
