Check out Airbnb's Paris library. https://github.com/airbnb/paris

Paris for applying styles programmatically in non-Compose code

You may find Paris interesting or useful (or Compose)

Yeah, there's a million resources (of varying age and quality) about the old system. Anything from Styling Android should be good, as well as any resources from Nick Butcher or Chris Banes (others too, but those are the ones that immediately come to mind). And the Paris library from Airbnb can make it easier to stye things via code.

To try and fix this problem fast I knew I needed some sort of logging and that is when I discovered Timber and Firebase Crashlynics. I then used THIS video to set both of them up and to create a decent crash reporting system.

Timber

Do you still use the Android Timber lib? The only real pro I see is that you don't need to declare the Tag, other than that that "pro" where each call checks if debug or not I wonder why you would like to have that, I mean what I want is all debug-only logs to get stripped out from the code, and instead of calling if(BuildConfig.Debug) on each Timer.xy() call why not create an extra Application class under the debug folder where logs are activated? Just trying to figure out of this lib that actually started like 9 years ago is still needed or not really anymore. https://github.com/JakeWharton/timber

One of the options could be to setup logging to the file within the app and sync it with backend once necessary or required. This could be achieved by using library, such as Timber and setting up local file. Depending on your constraints, such as file size, you might want to include a file rotation strategy, e.g. start a new file and remove the old one.
