=== Gradle Events

Look, we know that building Android applications should be faster; this is why performance is one of primary focuses for the upcoming Android Plugin for Gradle v3.0. We both want your builds to be fast, but to do that you need to know how to take advantage of the new 3.0 features.

This is why we are [presenting at][1] and sponsoring [.droidconSF][2] in 2 weeks. It has become the de-facto Android conference on the west coast, and a place we can come work with you to improve Android build tools.

Join us at the Gradle booth, and bring your build (a [build scan][3] is best) and a Gradle engineer will give you 1-1 advice. You will learn about Gradle's new build cache and other new performance features. A collection of 800 interesting Android dev tools enthusiasts will be around as well from companies you've heard of, of course.

And to sweeten the deal, we got you a [$50-off discount code][4].

[.droidconSF][2] is a community-driven Android developer conference happening on November 5-6, 2017. Join us for 2 days, 5 stages with [70+ talks][5] from the leading Android experts.

Hope to see you there!
