instal the new Android Studio 2022.3.1.22

We've been working with the Gradle and JetBrains teams on this improvement, and you can read more in their related announcements: Gradle Blog JetBrains Blog.Īdditionally, we’ve also added experimental support for TOML-based Gradle Version Catalogs, a feature that lets you manage dependencies in one central location and share dependencies across modules or projects.

And if you want to migrate existing builds, check out the Kotlin DSL migration guide. Now, when you are creating new projects or modules starting from Android Studio Giraffe, you get the Kotlin DSL by default. This means that Kotlin is the default language used in your project code, including UI with Jetpack Compose, and now editing the build scripts too! With Android Studio Giraffe, we are excited to offer the official support for Kotlin DSL in your Gradle build scripts.

Kotlin is not only more readable, it also offers better compile-time checking and IDE support. For a full list of changes, see the IntelliJ New UI documentation. To use the New UI, enable it in Settings > Appearance & Behavior > New UI. We are excited by this new design direction and will continue adoption through the Hedgehog release and onward. With the Giraffe release, we’ve started adopting the new UI, with several Android Studio specific changes, such as optimizing the default main toolbar and tool windows configurations for Android and refreshing our iconography in the style. Since then, it’s progressed to beta in IntelliJ 2022.3, with many bug fixes and improvements. The New UI was first released as an early preview in IntelliJ 2022.2 to gather feedback from users and other IntelliJ-based IDEs to ensure it could fully replace the previous UI. The redesigned theme aims to reduce visual complexity, provide easier access to essential features, and disclose complex functionality as needed-resulting in a modern, cleaner look and feel. Along with the much anticipated IntelliJ Platform update, we are excited to share a preview of the visual look that we call the “New UI” for Android Studio Giraffe.
