Lastly, we are shipping an updated Android Emulator that takes less system resources, and also supports the Android Q Beta. To aid app design, we incorporated your feedback to create a new app resource management tool to bulk import, preview, and manage resources for your project.

In another build-related change, R8 replaces Proguard as the default code shrinker and obfuscator. At the top of the list of issues for Android Studio 3.4 is an updated Project Structure Dialog (PSD) which is a revamped user interface to manage dependencies in your app project Gradle build files. Part of the effort of Project Marble is to address user facing issues in core features in the IDE. On top of many performance improvements and bug fixes we made in Android Studio 3.4, we are excited to release a small but focused set of new features that address core developer workflows for app building & resource management.

Project Marble is our focus on making the fundamental features and flows of the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) rock-solid. This is a milestone release of the Project Marble effort from the Android Studio team. Posted by Jamal Eason, Product Manager, AndroidĪfter nearly six months of development, Android Studio 3.4 is ready to download today on the stable release channel.
