Android Asset Packaging Tool 2.0 (AAPT2). https://developer.android.com/studio/command-line/aapt2 https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/tools/aapt2

The main idea behind AAPT2, apart from new features, is that it divides the ‘package’ step into two: ‘compile’ and ‘link’. It improves performance, since if only one file changes, you only need to recompile that one file and link all the intermediate files with the ‘link’ command.
