Gradle & the new Android Build System

We will talk about the upcoming Gradle based Build System for the Android SDK that uses proper dependency management and allows for bundle distributions of Libraries. We will present and demo what already has been developed and discuss the roadmap and how the new build system will be rolled out. We will also introduce Gradle as such with a special focus on the new generic features that have been developed as part of the Android effort like an more generic dependency management and the concept of variants of a library for different platforms. We will show how these new features are extremely useful for other non-java based platforms like Javascript, Scala and C++.
