How can I get the latest version of ConstraintLayout for Android?

Question

When I try to use ConstraintLayout in my layout content_main.xml, I get the following message:

Using version 1.0.0-alpha5 of the constraint library, which is obsolete

I am currently using the following library dependency:

compile 'com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:1.0.0-alpha5'

How can I get the latest version number of constraint layout?

The releases are now being listed here: https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/search?q=constraint — arekolek, Aug 14 '17 at 11:00
i wouldn't use a reference to an alpha. They have been known to remove those. — John Lord, Oct 08 '19 at 19:29

EDIT: Now that we are publishing ConstraintLayout directly on maven, you can check the maven directory:

https://dl.google.com/dl/android/maven2/com/android/support/constraint/group-index.xml

Look in the SDK Manager in Android Studio. If you check the "Show Package Details" in the SDK Tools section, you should see all the available verions of ConstraintLayout (under Support Repository -> ConstraintLayout for Android)

To Directly Pull in ConstraintLayout

Check the Maven repository for latest versions. Use the entire version name (e.g. 2.0.0-beta2).

Add dependency to target module:

target_module/build.gradle

If using support packages:

android {
  ...
}

dependencies {
  ...
  implementation `com.android.support.constraint:constraint-layout:some-version-number`
}

If using androidx packages:

android {
  ...
}

dependencies {
 implementation 'androidx.constraintlayout:constraintlayout:some-version-number'
}

Exact Gradle lines for 2.0.0-alpha5 can be found in the official release announcement.
