This article will explain in detail what are the update highlights of the Android Studio Arctic Fox Beta version. The editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it with you for reference. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

Google has released the first Beta version of Android Studio Arctic Fox (2020.3.1). If named after the old version number scheme, this version is Android Studio 4.3 Beta.

The new version number naming scheme was announced as early as last year, and Google explained that it was to align with the IntelliJ version. The new version number scheme is briefly introduced below, and the new version number format is as follows:

As you can see, the new version number consists of three parts, namely:

Year: the release year of the IntelliJ used, consistent with the upstream

Major version number of IntelliJ: the major version number of the IntelliJ used, which is consistent with the upstream

Major version number of AS: from 1 onwards, each major release increases by 1.

So from the version number of Android Studio 2020.3.1, we immediately know that this version is based on IntelliJ 2020.3 and is the first major update in the series.

In addition, to make it easier to reference each version, under the new version number scheme, each major version is given a code name, incremented from A to Z according to the animal name (similar to Ubuntu). Android Studio 2020.3.1 is codenamed Arctic Fox and the next major release is codenamed Bumblebee.
