Configure release signing, R8 obfuscation, and App Bundle publishing for Android. Use when setting up signing configs, enabling minification, adding ProGuard keep rules, or preparing for Play Store submission.

Android Deployment Standards

Priority: P0

Implementation Guidelines

Build Configuration

  • Minification: Always enable isMinifyEnabled = true and isShrinkResources = true for Release builds (R8).
  • Format: Publish using App Bundles (.aab) for Play Store optimization.
  • Signing: NEVER commit keystores or passwords. Use Environment Variables / Secrets.

Proguard / R8

  • Rules: Keep rules minimal. Use annotations (@Keep) for reflection-heavy classes instead of broad wildcard rules.
  • Mapping: Upload mapping.txt to Play Console for crash de-obfuscation.

Anti-Patterns

  • No debuggable=true in Release: Breaks obfuscation and exposes internal logic.
  • No Secrets in Repo: Use local.properties or CI environment variables.
