Implementation Guidelines

Build Configuration

**Minification**: Always enable `isMinifyEnabled = true` and `isShrinkResources = true` for Release builds (R8).
**Format**: Publish using **App Bundles (.aab)** for Play Store optimization.
**Signing**: NEVER commit keystores or passwords. Use Environment Variables / Secrets.

Proguard / R8

**Rules**: Keep rules minimal. Use annotations (`@Keep`) for reflection-heavy classes instead of broad wildcard rules.
**Mapping**: Upload `mapping.txt` to Play Console for crash de-obfuscation.

Anti-Patterns

**No debuggable=true in Release**: Breaks obfuscation and exposes internal logic.
**No Secrets in Repo**: Use local.properties or CI environment variables.
