Img Optimizer Gradle Plugin is a build-time utility for Android projects that automatically compresses PNG images to reduce APK size. It supports both lossless compression (no quality loss) and near-lossless or more aggressive compression modes, depending on configuration. The plugin runs during the Gradle build cycle, scanning image assets and applying optimizations transparently, which helps minimize the app’s binary footprint without manual image editing.

Tinker_imitator is an open source imitation/practice implementation of WeChat’s “Tinker” Android hot-update (hotfix) mechanism. It demonstrates how to update dex, resources, and native libraries without reinstalling the APK, aiming to simulate how WeChat patches apps in production. The project includes example apps, plugin modules, patch generation, and patch application logic. Resource patching (updating changed resources). Integration via a plugin/patch application module. Demo apps showing patch application. Dex hotfix patching (differential dex replacement).

drawable-optimizer is a utility focused on reducing the size of Android app image assets to shrink APK/Bundle footprints. It scans res/drawable* and related resource folders and compresses images using configurable strategies, often achieving meaningful savings without visible quality loss. By running as part of the build, it automates a task that would otherwise require manual tooling passes on individual files. Developers can fine-tune which directories and formats to process and exclude sensitive assets where bit-exactness matters. ...

The gradle‑packer‑plugin is a Gradle plugin designed for Android builds, aimed at automating the "channel packaging" process—creating multiple APK variants for distribution channels quickly and efficiently. It supports automatic version number incrementing and handles manifest configurations for different markets. For scenarios with hundreds of channels, its successor, Packer‑Ng offers significantly faster packaging. Handles manifest mismatches and market file exceptions. Successor plugin (Packer‑Ng) enables rapid packaging even with 100+ channels in about 10 seconds.
