It is more powerful and it is also faster, especially with larger projects, as it allows implementing incremental compilation. Starting from v11.50 the optimized dexer was removed and B4A uses Google's D8 tool during compilation. The main problem with the previous tool was the lack of support for Java 8 features, which are now used by many newer SDKs. This was done by the optimized dexer which was implemented before B4A v1.00 was released. One of the major steps during compilation is the conversion of the Java bytecode into Android (Dalvik) runtime bytecode.
