EMMA TWERSKY: I'm Emma for "The Developer Show."
This is your weekly update on the coolest developer
news from Google.
Google IO took place on May 11 and 12.
And in case you missed it, here's
what you need to know from this year's online event.
First up is AR.
And the future of augmented reality is looking bright.
Now, the new ARCore Geospatial API is here to use.
Developers can easily create immersive experiences
on Android and iOS at no cost and make
them available in 87 countries.
You can also place AR content in real world locations
without being there or having to scan the physical space.
With ARCore, developers have access
to tools they need to build experiences
that seamlessly blend the digital and physical worlds.
We're also releasing Balloon Pop, an open source demo
to give you an easy way to get started.
Have fun extending Balloon Pop for your own applications.
Over in Android, Wear OS is here.
In collaboration with our joint platform with Samsung,
the Google Pixel watch is coming this fall, bringing together
the best of Fitbit and Wear OS.
We're also announcing the beta of Jetpack Compose for Wear OS.
Now, with Compose Wear OS, you can bring your skills
to build across form factors, from larger
screens all the way down to the screen on your wrist.
We've also added components such as navigation,
[INAUDIBLE] lists, input, and gesture support and more.
Health and fitness are also popular apps on wearables.
And Health Connect, a new platform
simplifying connectivity between apps
can help make it easier to reach more users with less work.
Use a single set of APIs to securely access and share
health data on all Android devices.
Samsung Health, Fitbit, and Google Fit
will all be adopting Health Connect.
You can download the Health Connect SDK
available as a Jetpack library.
We can't forget about the large screens either.
In 2022, we'll see more than 75 new Chromebook models.
And coming next year will be the Pixel Tablet.
And of course, for updates on developer productivity
and Android, like multi-screen API, screen mirroring,
and live edit, make sure to watch the full IO recap linked
in the description.
Up next is web.dev, where you can find updates
to Chrome's performance improvements
which translate to faster experiences for you
and your users.
In the latest Chrome release, you
can also find a new performance insights panel to DevTools.
It provides contextual guidance right in your code
on improving your vitals, making it
a great companion to web.dev.
And finally, we're working on the privacy sandbox
to rethink online privacy and enable personalized experiences
that don't rely on tracking users across apps or sites.
Trial versions of the privacy sandbox APIs
are currently being tested in Chrome.
Moving on to Flutter, we're announcing Flutter 3,
where you can build high quality experiences for all six
platforms, all from a single code base,
giving unparalleled productivity.
There's also new performance tooling, Material 3,
foldable device support, and new Dart language features
that we think you'll enjoy.
Flutter also unveiled the Flutter Casual Game Toolkit.
It's a starter kit of resources including
a simple game, learning materials, community spaces,
and more, all so you can go quickly
from a great idea to a published game.
And lastly, Flutter support in Crashlytics is here.
Track fatal and informational errors
with the same set of features that are also
available for iOS and Android.
This will help resolve critical issues quickly
before they impact a large number of users.
Take advantage of these updates by adding the latest
version of the Crashlytics for Flutter plug-in to your app.
Check out the post to find all the updates to Flutter.
Let's get into Firebase where we're
launching the new app quality insights
window in Android Studio.
This will help you discover, investigate, and reproduce
issues reported by Crashlytics, so you no longer
have to switch between tools.
Firebase Extensions events are also available,
allowing you to customize an extension with your own custom
code.
This way, the extension becomes the baseline
for your integration while still allowing
you to make it your own.
To get started, visit the extensions page
on the Firebase website.
And lastly, Firebase App Check is now generally available
where you can help safeguard your data, protect your users,
and control who has access to your resources.
You can use these App Check protections
with Firebase, Cloud, and even API
endpoints on your own custom servers.
Speaking of Cloud, there are some new updates here as well.
With the newly announced Cloud Run Jobs,
you can execute code to completion on the same highly
scalable Cloud Run platform, only paying
when your jobs are executing and without managing
infrastructure.
AlloyDB for PostgreSQL was also spotlighted.
It's a new powerful, relational database
from Google Cloud that is fully PostgreSQL compatible.
AlloyDB is also highly available and is
more than four times faster than standard PostgreSQL
for transactional workloads.
With ML-Powered automated systems,
you don't have to provision storage,
manage memory, or worry about performance tuning.

recap video, which will be linked in the description box
