🗣Everything They Don’t Tell You About Dynamic Features and Instant Apps

Creating an Android project that is decoupled enough to be able to release an individual feature as an instant app is a tough ask. It becomes even more daunting when your starting point is a monolithic, single module project. In this talk we’ll go over how the Cricket World Cup 2019 app went from a 56MB APK to a 16MB app bundle + 4MB instant app, and we’ll show every single problem we hit along the way.

Speaker: Jamie Adkins

Jamie is a huge sports fan and has been building sports apps at Pulselive for the last 3 years. In 2019, Jamie was the Android lead on the Cricket World Cup 2019 app, bringing news, videos and live scores (and an instant app!) to cricket fans around the world.

🗣ASOS Talk: How to deliver features faster, with greater confidence

Let's be honest, we all know the struggle of getting a release out on time. Especially when there's multiple features, multiple teams and multiple merge conflicts involved. In this talk, we'll take you through the scripts, tools and techniques that we use to make our development faster and easier, without compromising on quality or confidence.
