Description
Firebase Crashlytics is now more tightly integrated into Android Studio tooling. Evaluate whether Sentry should invest in a dedicated IntelliJ plugin (in-IDE crash triage, symbolication status, dashboards) to stay competitive on DX.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing the issue's comparison with Firebase Crashlytics and its proposed IntelliJ/Android Studio capabilities: in-IDE crash triage, symbolication status, and dashboards. No repository files, tests, or entry points are named, so first map the existing Android and JVM SDK structure and any IDE tooling. Done means producing an investment recommendation with a defined scope and rationale.
