One Android Engineers said "We do not recommend switching to build.gradle.kts yet"

#kotlin_dsl. But yes, it's not officially supported by AS, so at your own risk.

Yes, but I did anyway. It has been hard, but I now understand all my build scripts and can build upon, so it's been worth it.

I don't think AS able to detect a new library versions from the Kotlin Script

It can highlight outdated AGP but not edit it yet. For libraries, I put them in buildSrc, so doesn't have much chances to catch old versions.

@louiscad... unless you use something like https://github.com/jmfayard/buildSrcVersions

Of course

I remember it being slower overall plus some bugs about exessive project synchronizations in AS 3.1.2. Maybe it improved.

I’m using only build.gradle.kts for now, it was a little hard to convert some build.gradle excerpts but now, as Louis said, I think we can go a lot of further since we understand how kotlin works
