####Speeding up debug builds

The project uses multidex. To speed up the builds you need to set minSdkLevel to 21 and above. Our project uses minSdk property to override minSdkLevel. To do that, you should open Android Studio Compiler Settings and add a command line property like below: -PminSdk=21

Release

The project has continuous distribution triggered by Travis CI.

• Pushing to master branch -> alpha release
• Pushing to release branch -> beta release

Note: Alpha release is a special build that should not be promoted to beta or production.

release branch is meant to be for production release. It is by default deployed to Beta. After a brief test there, it can be safely promoted to production.

Push triggers a release.

When something is pushed to master or release, after a successful release, it always creates another commit increasing the version number and git tag. It's not necessary to tag manually.

####Best Practices

• Alpha release
  • Just merge develop into master and push to trigger an internal alpha release.
• Beta/Production release
  • Update release branch to latest develop
  • Increase version number in root build.gradle file
  • Make versionBuild = 0
  • Update app/src/main/play/en-US/whatsnew file for change log in Google Play Store
  • Commit the changes and push
  • After a successful release, merge release branch back into develop
