I use "compile" instead of "implementation".

[nickbutcher]

Sorry but you'll have to update to Android Studio 3 betas and Gradle 4.1 to build Plaid.

[amlwin]

@Jarvanh Thanks. it is solve by changing implementation to compile

[amlwin]

Thanks @nickbutcher too. I'm new to Open Source Software.If I have a chance I want to be part of contributors in Plaid.

[nickbutcher]

Welcome to Open Source! Look forward to seeing your contributions in the future.

gradle版本的问题，新版本用到api和implementation，这一点要注意。
