How can I learn latest stable minor version of an Android support dependency?

For example I want to use latest stable minor version ofcom.android.support:appcompat-v7 version 26. But I don't know where to get that information. Is it 26.86.76 or 26.2.65 or something else?

com.android.support:appcompat-v7

It needs a little more understanding.

When we add these dependencies and hit build button, at first it actually search for repository site where it will look for these repos. That may come from 'project level' gradle file where we add repository inside of buildscript or allprojects. Have you ever notice the site's link? Like - maven.google.com / fabric.io. These are the main repository hub for those dependency's where all repos exist.

Now, come to the main point. If you hit http://maven.google.com it will reach you at https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/index.html. Then you can look for your repos.

If you want to find the latest support dependencies, at first type CTRL+F to find mother repo (like support). Then click + to navigate your child repos. You will get all the repos name from the beginning of google repositories serially.

Here: https://mvnrepository.com/

Search com.android.support and the first result is appcompat-v7. After entering it, click the Google tab and you can see all versions and their minor versions.

https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.android.support/appcompat-v7?repo=google

By hovering the mouse over the wanted dependency, and then by pressing alt+enter you get to see the latest dependency :)
