Summary of Changes

Hello @ArthurKun21, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly modernizes the project's build infrastructure and development setup. By migrating common build logic into buildSrc, it enhances maintainability and consistency across modules. Key dependencies, including the Android Gradle Plugin and Gradle itself, have been updated to their latest versions, ensuring compatibility and access to new features. Additionally, a new DevContainer configuration has been introduced to standardize the development environment, facilitating easier onboarding and consistent development experiences.

Highlights

• Build Logic Centralization: Introduced buildSrc to centralize and manage Gradle build logic, making build configurations more organized and reusable across modules.
• Dependency Updates: Updated the Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) to version 9.0.0, Gradle to 9.3.0, Compose BOM to 2026.01.01, Hilt to 2.59, and KSP to 2.3.5.
• Development Environment Setup: Added a new .devcontainer configuration, including a Dockerfile and devcontainer.json, to provide a consistent Java and Android development environment with pre-installed tools and VS Code extensions.
• Build Script Refactoring: Refactored module-level build.gradle.kts files to leverage the new buildSrc plugins, simplifying their content by abstracting common configurations like SDK versions and compile options.
• Git Ignore Enhancements: Updated the .gitignore file to include new build artifacts and Kotlin-related directories, improving repository cleanliness.

Code Review

This pull request introduces a significant improvement by migrating build logic to buildSrc, which enhances maintainability and centralizes configuration. The dependency updates, including AGP and Gradle, are also valuable. I've identified a critical issue in the new Dockerfile that will prevent the dev container from building due to an invalid URL. Additionally, there are a few minor style inconsistencies in newly added files that contradict the project's own Spotless formatting rules. After addressing these points, the PR will be in great shape.

Summary of Changes

This pull request focuses on a significant overhaul of the project's build infrastructure and development environment. The primary goal is to streamline the build process, ensure up-to-date dependencies, and provide a consistent development setup. By centralizing build logic within 'buildSrc' and updating core tools like AGP and Gradle, the project aims for improved maintainability and easier future upgrades. The introduction of a DevContainer further standardizes the development experience, making it simpler for contributors to set up and work on the project.

Highlights

• Build System Modernization: Introduced 'buildSrc' for centralized Gradle build logic, enhancing maintainability and reusability across modules by abstracting common configurations.
• Dependency and Tooling Updates: Upgraded key dependencies including Android Gradle Plugin (AGP) to 9.0.0, Gradle to 9.3.0, Compose BOM to 2026.01.01, Hilt to 2.59, and KSP to 2.3.5, ensuring the project uses the latest stable versions.
• Standardized Development Environment: Added a new '.devcontainer' configuration, including a Dockerfile and 'devcontainer.json', to provide a consistent Java and Android development environment with pre-installed tools and VS Code extensions.
• Build Script Simplification: Refactored module-level 'build.gradle.kts' files to leverage the new 'buildSrc' plugins, significantly reducing boilerplate and improving readability.
• Documentation and Cleanup: Updated 'README.md' with new dependency import instructions and removed the Chinese 'README_CN.md'. The '.gitignore' was also updated for better repository cleanliness.
