In Project Marble, we are specifically looking at reducing the number of crashes, hangs, memory leaks, and user-impacting bugs. Announced at the Android Developer Summit in November 2018, Project Marble is the Android Studio team's focus on making the fundamental features and flows of the Integrated Development Environment (IDE) rock-solid, along with refining and polishing the user-facing features that matter to you in your day-to-day app development workflows.
In addition, saving snapshots on exit for the Android emulator is 8x faster.Īndroid Studio 3.3 kicks off the broader quality focus area for the year, which we call Project Marble. This release also includes official support for Navigation Editor, improved incremental Java compilation when using annotation processors, C++ code lint inspections, an updated new project wizard, and usability fixes for each of the performance profilers. Since the last stable release, Android Studio 3.3 addresses over 200 user- reported bugs. The goal is to ensure Android Studio continues to help you stay productive in making great apps for Android.
Based on the feedback from many of you, we have taken a step back from large features to focus on our quality fundamentals. We are excited to kick off the new year with a stable release of Android Studio 3.3 focused on refinement and quality.
