February 2020 Summaries

Firebase announced the beta release of its Crashlytics SDK, enabling developers to remove remaining Fabric dependencies and use an API design, package naming, and initialization process consistent with other Firebase SDKs. The SDK supports iOS, macOS, tvOS, and Mac Catalyst applications, and its source code has been open-sourced to improve transparency and extensibility. Integrated with Google Analytics, Crashlytics provides crash-free statistics, release reporting, and Breadcrumbs that reveal user actions preceding crashes, helping developers diagnose issues more effectively. Google recommends Analytics as the replacement for Fabric’s Answers platform and provides upgrade documentation for existing Fabric users, getting-started resources for new users, and Android and iOS source repositories on GitHub.
