Using the android-gif-drawable library as a case study, this presentation demonstrates how JNI can solve critical performance challenges in Android by bridging Kotlin with native C/C++ code. Participants will learn how to configure the NDK, efficiently transfer data across the Java-Native boundary, and handle memory management to prevent crashes. Ultimately, the session provides a roadmap for building faster applications and reusing existing native libraries to gain a competitive edge.
A Bridge to Performance: How JNI Brought GIFs to Life on Android
Discover how to optimize Android applications using JNI. Learn to configure NDK, invoke native code, and avoid common pitfalls based on the android-gif-drawable case study.
