Want to improve the startup time of your Android app? 🚀 → https://goo.gle/4gauU3L Check out this blog post, where we share how Reddit used Baseline Profiles and R8 to achieve significant performance improvements. Baseline profiles allow you to specify which parts of your code are most important for startup and have them pre-compiled. This can significantly reduce the amount of time your app spends loading and get your users into the action faster. R8 can shrink your app size and reduce the amount of code that needs to be loaded at startup, leading to even faster startup times.

Learn how to create a spotlight effect on your camera preview with Jetpack Compose and face detection! → https://goo.gle/4ayHWG4 In this blog post, we continue our exploration of CameraX and Jetpack Compose. We'll show you how to overlay UI elements, focusing on a spotlight effect that highlights detected faces. The blog post covers how to modify the CameraPreviewViewModel to enable face detection, utilizing the Camera2Interop API. This approach allows access to advanced camera features not directly available through CameraX. We then explain the process of transforming sensor coordinates to UI coordinates, ensuring the effects are drawn correctly on the screen. Finally, using a Canvas composable, we’ll walk through drawing a gradient mask over the preview, creating the spotlight effect using BlendMode.DstOut to cut out the gradient. This blog will equip you to create visually stunning camera experiences by leveraging the power of Compose.
