| Adaptive Icons: Case Studies & Principles of Design | Michael Cook | 48m |
Android O enforces two-layer Adaptive Icons behind an arbitrary mask so designs must prove they read across circle square and the inscrutably named skwerkel… | ||
| Best Practices When Building Mobile SDKs | Emma Tresanszki | 22m |
Covers concrete practices: warns against dynamic versions ("+" in Gradle) because builds become non‑deterministic; shows how to inspect the merged manifest and… | ||
| High Quality Animation in Native Products | Salih Abdul-Karim | 35m |
Claim: designers can ship high‑quality native motion without engineers rewriting animation code. Concrete stack: After Effects → bodymovin exporter → Lottie… | ||

| Getting to 100% Kotlin: A Practical Guide | Dan Kim | 31m |
Basecamp moves an Android codebase from ~18,000 Java lines to 100% Kotlin over about 430 days, using the JetBrains auto converter plus targeted manual edits… | ||
| Work Smarter, Not Harder; Make Yourself Indispensable! | Travis Himes | 41m |
Claims concrete: Unix tools and bash aliases cut repetitive work, a rule of three triggers automation, and a zip-to-drawables shell script replaces manual… | ||
| Design as Haiku | Justin Barber | 28m |
Argues for three concrete haiku rules applied to product design: enforce tight constraints (examples: six seconds on Vine, 140 characters on Twitter… | ||
| How Espresso Works | Michael Bailey | 57m |
Explains precise mechanics: Espresso wires objects with Dagger 2, builds a ViewInteraction, then synchronizes by copying the idling registry into internal… | ||
