    Faster Xamarin.Android Builds & Smaller Dex Files
    Faster Xamarin.Android Builds & Smaller Dex Files

    Jonathan Peppers
    One of our current focus areas in Xamarin.Android is build performance and reducing the multidex count. Developer productivity is directly impacted by the "inner dev loop": the time it takes to make a small code change and see the result on a device or emulator. Performance is a feature!

    Starting on August 1st, 2019 all Android apps that ship native libraries will need to provide a 64-bit version of their app. Xamarin.Android already includes support for 64-bit CPUs and can be enabled with a simple check of a checkbox!
