Want to stay in sync with Android’s latest features and bring them into your own projects? Join a former Googler and Android team member as we dive into Trunk Stable – Android’s new quarterly release model.

We’ll explore why this change is much needed for improving quality, releasing more frequently, and meeting upcoming regulatory compliance.

You’ll learn how to define features, A/B test them, and make sense of next, trunk_food, and trunk_staging. We’ll discuss strategies for rebasing your changes onto the latest code, managing feature flags with tools like aconfig, and keeping your projects aligned with the newest Android updates.
