Just Your Type: Variable Fonts In Compose

Variable Fonts are ready to use from Compose UI 1.3.0, for Android O and above. A variable font is a font that can be customized in multiple ways (or axis or parameters) creating dramatically different styles, while living in a single font file. Those axes can be well known and defined in the standard (e.g.: weight, width, slant, italic) or added by the font itself. Learn more about variable fonts in Google Fonts Knowledge. Text using the same variable font customized with different axes values. By using variable fonts rather than regular font files you only have one font file to manage…

Raising The Bar On Technical Quality On Google Play

App quality is the foundation of everything we do at Google Play. Android users expect a great experience from the apps and games they download, so we’re making higher-quality titles more visible on the Play Store, as well as steering users away from lower-quality ones. Some apps and games that don’t meet our quality bar will be excluded from prominent discovery surfaces such as recommendations, while others may display a warning on their store listing to set appropriate user expectations. One of the most important ways to boost your app quality and attract more users is to focus on technical…

Freeing Up 60% Of Storage For Apps

One of the main reasons users uninstall apps is to free up space. To prevent unnecessary uninstalls and help users get more out of their devices, we started working on a new feature that would enable app archiving. Archiving is a new functionality that will allow users to reclaim ~60% of app storage temporarily by removing parts of the app rather than uninstalling it completely. An archived app will remain on the device and can easily be restored to the latest available compatible version, whilst preserving the user data. With the release of the upcoming version of Bundletool 1.10, we are taking…

10 Use Cases for Using Laravel to Build Web App Development Projects

It’s no secret that PHP is sometimes considered a “low-barrier-to-entry” programming language. While there are some arguments against PHP, it’s mature, still among the top 10 most used programming languages worldwide, and one of the most popular languages to build maintainable, clean, fast, and reliable web apps.

It’s paramount to get an idea of how some frameworks and libraries work as they are designed for a more natural structured way of app development. Talking about web projects built on PHP, Laravel is the most utilized framework for…

The Operational Analytics Loop: From Raw Data to Models to Apps, and Back Again

Over the next decade or so, we’ll see an incredible transformation in how companies collect, process, transform and use data. Though it’s tired to trot out Marc Andreessen’s “software will eat the world” quote, I have always believed in the corollary: “Software practices will eat the business.” This is starting with data practices. To understand modern DataOps, we can look to DevOps principles. DevOps completely changed engineering practices and philosophies like continuous integration and continuous deployment to close the gap between operations and development. Today, we’re starting to see DataOps wash over the analytics world, pushing it toward the same…
