Summary of Changes

Hello @sfshaza2, 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 enhances the Android build documentation by integrating Kotlin DSL examples alongside the existing Groovy snippets. The change aims to provide comprehensive guidance for developers who prefer Kotlin for their Gradle build scripts, ensuring the documentation remains relevant and accessible to a wider audience. By using a tabbed interface, readers can easily switch between Groovy and Kotlin syntax, improving the learning experience and reducing potential confusion.

Highlights

  • Kotlin DSL Examples Added: Introduced Kotlin DSL (KTS) examples across various Android build documentation files to provide alternative configurations to existing Groovy snippets.
  • Tabbed Code Presentation: Implemented a <Tabs> component to present both Kotlin and Groovy examples side-by-side, enhancing readability and ease of comparison for developers.
  • Documentation Coverage: Updated documentation sections covering plugin setup, package usage, deferred components, and Compose activity integration to include KTS configurations.

🧠 New Feature in Public Preview: You can now enable Memory to help Gemini Code Assist learn from your team's feedback. This makes future code reviews more consistent and personalized to your project's style. Click here to enable Memory in your admin console.

The examples generally look like Kotlin DSL to me. I added some suggestions to the Groovy examples.
