How does Bright SDK integrate into Android apps?

For Android, Bright SDK provides a dedicated Gradle Plugin — the bright-sdk-gradle plugin — that integrates directly into your existing Android build system. Gradle is the standard build tool used by Android Studio and the broader Android development ecosystem, so no separate tooling needs to be adopted.

The plugin automates SDK version management as part of your normal build process. Each time you build your Android app, the plugin checks whether a newer version of Bright SDK is available, downloads it if needed, and places it in the correct location in your project structure. It supports version pinning for teams that need to stay on a specific SDK release during testing, and local caching for faster builds in CI/CD environments. Requires JDK 17 or higher and Gradle 6.7 or later.
