Dexcount Gradle Plugin

A Gradle plugin to report the number of method references in your APK, AAR, or java module.

This helps you keep tabs on the growth of your app, with an eye to staying under the 65,536 method-reference limit, and avoiding the headache of eliminating methods or enabling multidex.

For more information, please see the website.
