Announced at I/O 2017, Architecture Components are one part of Jetpack. These components include Room, LiveData, ViewModel, Paging, WorkManager and Navigation. Used separately they solve common but complex architecture issues, such as managing Android Lifecycle (LiveData/ViewModel), or handling background tasks (WorkManager). Used together, you can ditch the boilerplate, build robust apps faster, and focus on the code that makes your app unique!

Lyrics
An empty street, an empty house
A hole inside my heart
I’m all alone, the rooms are getting smaller.

I wonder how, I wonder why,
I wonder where they are
The days we had, the songs we sang together, oh, yeah.

And all my love, I’m holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again, my love.
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again, my love.

I try to read, I go to work
I’m laughing with my friends
But I can’t stop to keep myself from thinking, oh, no.

I wonder how, I wonder why,
I wonder where they are
The days we had, the songs we sang together, oh, yeah.

And all my love, I’m holding on forever
Reaching for the love that seems so far

So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again, my love.
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again,

To hold you in my arms,
To promise you my love,
To tell you from the heart,
You’re all I’m thinking of.

Reaching for the love that seems so far

So I say a little prayer
And hope my dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue to see you once again, my love.
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again, my love.

Say a little prayer (my sweet love)
Dreams will take me there
Where the skies are blue (woah, yeah) to see you once again, my love. (oh, my love)
Over seas from coast to coast
To find the place I love the most
Where the fields are green to see you once again, my love.

An Android App Bundle is a new upload format that includes all your app’s compiled code and resources, but defers APK generation and signing to Google Play.

Google Play’s new app serving model, called Dynamic Delivery, then uses your app bundle to generate and serve optimized APKs for each user’s device configuration, so they download only the code and resources they need to run your app. You no longer have to build, sign, and manage multiple APKs to support different devices, and users get smaller, more optimized downloads.

Android App Bundles also support on demand code loading via feature modules. Watch the DevByte here → https://goo.gl/dfFUWQ
