I am seeing repeatedly issues in the forums with the new Android X and Jetify requirements, people forgetting to do that, or simply not knowing. We all have to learn at some point, I understand.
But it would be nice if the Jetify was built-into the compiling process. Like a checkbox, "Automatically Jetify Libraries on Build".
This way, when you compile whether you forget or not, it will jetify the libraries as long as the SDK requirements are settled, etc...
