body: <p>Would you know where to get the latest version for Room ?</p>
  
  <p>On <a href="https://developer.android.com/topic/libraries/architecture/adding-components" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this Android Studio page</a>, it is quoted that the latest Room version is 2.1.0-alpha3 but when I put this version in my build.gradle file, the project cannot compile and the following error is shown :</p>
