Views Widgets Samples
This repository is a collection of reference implementations and galleries demonstrating best practices for the Android View system. It provides a set of practical examples for building user interfaces, including a component gallery and implementation guides for layouts, list performance, and motion design.
The project distinguishes itself through detailed samples for coordinating layout animations and transition effects. It includes specialized demonstrations for complex motion animations using keyframes and interpolation, as well as a visualization tool for animation interpolation curves to determine motion parameters.
The codebase covers broad capability areas including high-performance list management with view recycling and differential updates, paginated navigation with tab synchronization, and interface adaptability for multi-window and split-screen modes. It also includes samples for card layouts, embedded web content, and automated UI testing for page transitions.
Features
