From Accompanist v0.28.0 you can try out the new Test Harness library! You can use it in Compose tests to resize a composable so it always fits the device, change locales, toggle dark mode, and more! 📑Check out the docs: google.github.io/accompanist/te… Congrats Alex Vanyo!

Now in Android now has Gradle Managed Devices integrations on GitHub Actions. github.com/android/nowina… Note that defining it as a convention plugin isn't possible at the moment due to the bug in GMD, which is now fixed and will be included in Android Studio Flamingo.

Google's new model, Bison, is here. I decided to compare it to GPT4 and benchmark them in 4 real world scenarios, looking at: output, reasoning and cost. Here's what i found:
