UI Preview

Breaking Changes

• None; all internal QA app changes

🚨 NB: QA app has been excluded from the default Gradle build !! 🚨
Due to Compose / AGP dependency issues with Java 8, the QA app is no longer part of the default build. The QA app stays in the repo; to build and run it locally you need to re-include it and manually set Gradle/AGP as per BAU. Instructions in Android QA App Notion page.

@graciecooper Ideally, we would want the app module to be included in settings.gradle. Did we try updating AGP to 7.4.x or even 8.x (not sure) in the project level build gradle?

Depending on the activity we want to open, we might need <data android:scheme="https" android:host="submariners.lnk.click"/>, as this is what we have configured on backend today. So I guess we need to move the intent filter?
