Jetpack Navigation 3 is stable! 🎉🎉🎉
Leaning into Jetpack Compose and the idea of combining smaller building blocks together really helped make Nav3 a much more flexible library that made it a joy to work on and hopefully for you to use as well!

😂 An opportunity to write about one of my all-time favourite developer war-stories has appeared!
Very excited to share this when the time comes ✨
Sometimes you've got to celebrate the small wins.

That's on me as well. Really pleased you made it over and I also promise I'll catch you at the next one
I just sponsored @skydoves.bsky.social
After seeing (and briefly meeting) Jaewoong @ Droidcon London, his open-source work is by far some of the most impressive & important in our space right now
I highly recommend supporting his continued work if you can ❤️

Nah can't be, I don't work Sundays 🤪

I'm so grateful for the Android community. I've seen so many old friends at Droidcon London this year and even made some new ones too
What a wonderful thing to have been a part of!

See you at @droidcon.bsky.social London (I hope) 💪
I'm not saying you should skip my talk to go to his, but I will be speaking at 1.5x speed to catch the last 20 mins of his talk 😂😉
Made the classic mistake of checking who I clash with at Droidcon London this year 😂
Of course, it's @zacsweers.dev with the main talk I wanted to catch 🙃

✨ New article on how to create futuristic, cyberpunk glitch effects that's overused in sci-fi movies, right in #JetpackCompose

This approach uses regular canvas functions, so no need to dip into shader code... yet.
#ComposeMultiplatform #AndroidDev
Reminder that Compose Multiplatform (www.jetbrains.com/compose-mult...) is Stable on iOS, Android and Desktop....and now in Beta for Web.
I am really enjoying using Warp as my daily Terminal
I never thought AI and the terminal would mix, but it's definitely helped improve so much of my workflow 🚀
Highly recommend giving it a try if you haven't already!
In all seriousness, do come and join us - it's going to be great fun to talk mobile security!

Been sick this weekend, but I am feeling marginally better and now very excited about my talk tomorrow night in Leeds
Please come along, if not just to see what my fever-fed slides contain 😂
(See pic attached)
I've been losing my mind for the last few evenings trying to figure out how to write a KMP compatible Gzip decompression method
JVM & Android were easy but iOS was driving me crazy with zlib C interop and alloc calls!
TIL it turns out Okio can do it all, in two lines of code 😂
Looks incredible 😍 Great stuff ✨
As many of you know, I wrote Modern Security in Android a couple of years ago. It's time for a well-deserved refresh
It's time to talk about some new practices that you may want to follow
It will be available at the same link this Sunday 👩🏻💻✨🥸🍊

That's true (outside of WebView's support for the <ruby> tag)
However, there's some good open-source solutions available

Given the hard work was done in the vertical text library, I wonder if support will eventually come in AndroidX Text 🧐
Wrote a quick blog post about the newest AndroidX library 'androidx.text:text-vertical' 📚✨
Learn about the cool functionality this provides and why this is important, particularly if you read Japanese newspapers 🇯🇵📰
