A collection of ready-to-use recipe projects maintained by Google that demonstrate the Android Gradle Plugin's public APIs and DSL for common build customizations. Each recipe is a minimal working example (artifact transforms, variant handling, generated sources, manifest edits), with dedicated branches matching specific AGP versions.

Use cases

customize android builds with the gradle plugin api
transform classes or manifest during an android gradle build
add a generated source folder with agp
create a custom build type using the agp dsl
android gradle plugin variant api examples
disable or select variants with beforeVariants
migrate legacy gradle tasks to the agp artifact api

When to choose

You're extending the Android Gradle Plugin and need working sample code for a specific API like artifact transformation or variant customization
You want examples that match an exact AGP version by switching to its agp-* branch
You're migrating build logic from legacy task bridging to AGP's components/variant APIs

When to avoid

You need a production-ready plugin or library to drop into your build rather than example code
You're looking for general Gradle build tutorials that don't involve Android
You need reference documentation of AGP APIs instead of runnable demonstrations, or you require a permissively licensed codebase, since no license is declared in the repo metadata
