Android 12 (API 31)
What a hectic month! But the great news is that all of our extensions have been updated to the latest Google Play Services and androidx libraries including all the air packages for use in apm!
Android 12 (API 31), apm documentation
This month we were aiming to have released a complete upgrade of all our extensions to be compatible with Android 12 (API 31) including Google Play Services and the AndroidX libraries. Along with this comes a major update to all our documentation to use the AIR Package Manager (apm)!
Unfortunately due to the unexpected weather event in Australia, distriqt's offices have been affected by extreme flooding and power outages and we have been delayed with this release.
We are currently aiming to start release of these updates over the next fortnight, as soon as our office is operating again.
Android 31, Google Play Services, AndroidX, APM Documentation
The start to the year has been a disrupted one, with our team having to deal with several COVID cases in our families. Fortunately we weren’t too badly affected and are all back on deck now. But this has meant our schedule for native extension work has been delayed.
Camera Roll Extended, and APM
It has been a quieter month here at distriqt. The team took some time early in the month to have a much needed break especially before the end of year rush.
Work continues on the AIR package manager. If you are using the tool we’d really love to hear any feedback you may have. We are currently looking to v2.0 and what features the community will need in this utility going forward.
airsdk.dev, extension updates, and more on APM
I am hope you aren't sick of hearing about APM, we are really excited for this tool so may feel like that is all we are talking about recently. We have been pushing out all our extensions as air packages and have over 70 packages in the repository now and are hoping to complete all our extensions early in October.
