Apr 1, 2026April 2026 monthly summary for google/dive focusing on cross-platform build reliability, packaging, and release automation. Delivered a unified cross-platform build and packaging workflow that consolidates host and device builds into a single Python script (build.py) with plugin handling, improving packaging reliability and enabling automated, end-to-end releases across Windows, macOS, and Linux. Modernized the Windows release pipeline with msbuild-based presubmit and default CMake-based host builds, reducing presubmit time and simplifying toolchains. Enhanced macOS packaging and app bundle workflows by separating host and device plugins, integrating deployment steps into the install phase, and moving macOS release actions into the unified build process. Introduced macOS signing and CI flexibility by detaching signing from the CI flag, enabling signing in CI environments. Began consolidating macOS release coverage into the unified build, including deprecating legacy deploy_mac_bundle.py in favor of build.py changes. These efforts collectively improve reliability, reduce release cycle times, and strengthen cross-platform packaging quality.
