Make Your App Instant!
summary
Jet.com’s team builds a multi‑module Instant App using Gradle plugins (android‑feature, android‑instantapp), APK Analyzer and ProGuard, plus WebP, Smart Lock and Google Payments; they split into base + feature modules (PLP, PDP, Cart, Order), fix ProGuard and resource ID issues, and work around a versionCode bug. The app reduces from 17MB to <7MB with per‑module targets under 4MB, yields a 27% conversion lift and a 7% cart‑size increase.
