Was pleasantly surprised to see a mention of @JetpkComposeApp's newsletter on the official Android blog celebrating 5 years of Jetpack Compose.
Thank you @AndroidDev (@riggaroo @crafty)

Subscribe and read it. The architecture test part blew my mind. I didn't even know that was possible

Excited to announce something new. Just sent this to the subscribers of my newsletter but figured I should share it here as well as it says a lot about where my head's at

The next issue of Dispatch goes out tomorrow! There's a bunch of super interesting content but the one that you don't want to miss is a behind-the-scenes look at the team behind @firebender_com that many of you here use on the daily.

Want to give a quick shoutout out all the supporters of @JetpkComposeApp over the years. Open-source and free-only projects can often be thankless but your kindness has certainly given me the extra boost to keep it going. I now highlight all the supporters on a dedicated page 🙏🏻

I've believed this since 2020. However, here's a headwind for Compose/Kotlin Multiplatform that didn't exist back then.
LLMs have a strong preference for the data that it's trained with. And there's just a lot more React/Native code to go around. This bias in training makes it's way to the recommendations that it makes as well. As a result, I predict that React Native will get even more popular due to this "top of funnel" bias that our AI tools of choice will come with.
There's certainly ways to overcome this and I wonder if someone like Google will choose to do additional pre-training with the technologies and frameworks that it controls.
Jetpack Compose is the beginning of the future in 2025 #androiddev
(As long as you don't let React Native win, and end up moving all your layouting logic to C++ and Yoga for some reason)

Updated the hero asset on the landing page to be on brand with the style of the season 😎

I like @vinaygaba's Android newsletter because it feels like it's written by someone who genuinely develops for Android, rather than just curating links.

Latest issue going out in about 30 mins. We are going to have some very transparent conversations!

Just shipped a redesigned version of the landing page for Dispatch, the Android/Compose newsletter that I write.
I wanted to make a few things more obvious and build a bit more credibility which wasn't clear in the previous iteration of this landing page.

The latest edition of Dispatch goes out tomorrow morning. As always, the goal is to make sure you learn about one new thing and I believe I've kept that promise 12 times so far. Don't intend to change that tomorrow.

I promised myself I’d write at least 10 editions of Dispatch before deciding if I'd keep going. Now I’m at issue #11—and I’d love your feedback!
Should I continue writing it? Has it added enough value?
It takes a lot of time so I want to make sure the readers actually want it
Excited to introduce the latest addition to my site -
🚀 Dispatch 🚀
Dispatch is a Jetpack Compose/Android focused newsletter that sifts through all the noise and gives you only the bytes that matter.
Why it's different?
There's a lot of newsletters that already exist but most of them are simply link aggregators and I honestly don't have the time to go through all those links myself. I just want something that reliably gives me golden nuggets in 5 minutes or less. If it was entertaining, that'd be an added bonus. Shockingly, this doesn't exist so Dispatch is here to close that gap.
Why am I uniquely positioned to do this?
I wrote my first line of #JetpackCompose code in 2019. I've been super involved with the community ever since and built multiple tools to help the Android ecosystem in different ways. I also helped @Airbnb adopt Compose and so I have been actively involved with the topics, challenges and considerations that are interesting and relevant to an Android developer. It would be a missed opportunity for me to not share what I'm already organically curating on a daily basis.
I hope you will enjoy reading it! The first edition just went out! You can find it in the thread 👇🏻

Alright, this is set to hit your inbox at 9am PST tomorrow!
The latest issue of Dispatch is going to be special...
I reached out to a few Android experts and asked them all an important question -
"Where do you see Android Development in three years, and how do you think developers should prepare for that future?"
They shared fun hot-takes, insights, wishes and predictions.
It's a particularly interesting time for the Android ecosystem so I was really curious to hear all the diverse perspectives. Moreover, some of us have a front seat at seeing how the recent changes in the technological landscape are changing our day-to-day. Some are even helping enable that change.
Very grateful that this group took the time to share their perspective. It's packed with insights and hot-takes so you don't want to miss this edition. If you work on Android, I strongly recommend reading it - it'll be well worth your time.
I'll be sending the email tomorrow. If you'd like to subscribe to receive the email, the link to the newsletter is in my bio
