Looks like there was a bug in manufacturing #io16 water bottles. Is there anyone who's bottle was not leaking? Mine was leaking but now it's fixed. Rubber under the wider cap had to be flipped.

There were a lot of great announcements at #io16 but a small gem from the Support Lib talk was the ability to create more succinct AnimatedVectorDrawables using a new XML bundle format.

Previously to create an AnimatedVectorDrawable you would need at least 3 xml files to specify it:

1. A VectorDrawable you're going to animate.
2. One or many Animators to run.
3. An animated-vector definition, essentially tying the drawable and animator(s) together.

The new bundle format lets you specify this in a single file. Here's an example:

https://gist.github.com/nickbutcher/53e5d0f8cbd9e0b5b7687c9e8cb6e8b1

Notice the aapt namespace and usage; at build time, aapt will create the separate resources for you (1 & 2 in the list above) and reference them in the animated-vector. This requires Build Tools 24+ (currently in RC) but the output is backward compatible.

Starting with amazing new features in the Chrome DevTools, some to come, some already there (the color picker is sooo useful).
Those are the tools that will build the futur web and web apps.

Meet #Firebass, the Alternate Reality Game (ARG) we launched during #io16.
Firebass, the fish, is the main character who has an instinctive desire to time-travel back through prior eras of the web. Read about how we created Firebass and highlights from the game: https://goo.gl/k3QbBs.

Firebase @ #io16 video: Supercharging Firebase with Google Cloud Platform

In this talk, we take a look at how you can use Firebase to build a real time application that interacts with virtual machines, big data, machine learning APIs, and more on Google Cloud Platform. Firebase allows you to build awesome real time apps quickly and easily. Google Cloud Platform lets you build powerful services that scale. Combining these two platforms gives you the power to build amazing experiences without worrying about infrastructure and operations. Join us as we show you step by step how we built our application in just a few days. You will walk away ready to build an amazing application with Firebase and Google Cloud Platform.

Firebase @ #io16 video: Configuring the world: Rapid actioning based on analytic insights

You built your app and you launched! Congratulations! And now you're gaining fascinating insights on user behavior thanks to Analytics and you're itching to take action based on these insights. You can always go back to changing your app and pushing a new version, hoping your users will update your app. But there is a faster way to make changes: Firebase Remote Config.

Firebase @ #io16: Creating interactive multiplayer experiences with Firebase

Building realtime features that work on all your different devices is the holy grail of app development. The Firebase Realtime Database lets you store and sync data instantly, and allows you to build a web, mobile or Unity application in minutes without worrying about wiring up a backend. The real time aspect and a number of lesser known, powerful features (such as transactions) make it possible to create a multiplayer gaming experience as well. In this session, you'll learn how to use the Firebase Realtime Database to keep track of your online players, synchronize game state across multiple connections, create chat rooms, and match players together for game play.
