Kotlin and Android Development featuring Jetpack:Page 37

Enable Data Binding paragraph. I’m not sure I got this right, the book is a bit vague on this in my opinion. But, I placed the required items in the “build.gradle(:app)” file. And here is how I made my entries. Can you tell me is the correct way to do it, see my code snipping below;
plugins {
id 'com.android.application'
id 'org.jetbrains.kotlin.android'
id 'kotlin-kapt'
}
android {
compileSdk 32
buildFeatures{
dataBinding = true
}
defaultConfig {
applicationId "com.example.pennydrop"
minSdk 26
targetSdk 32
versionCode 1
versionName "1.0"
testInstrumentationRunner "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"
}
buildTypes {```

This looks right to me! Keep in mind you can always grab the source code from the book’s homepage and compare against what’s there.
