today I came across the Path App:
And wanted to ask if its possible to implement this round menu in Android. Would be a Framelayout a good solution or what would be better? Also I heard hat somebody had crated a library which implemented almost the same thing. But didn't found anything.
Here are some open source projects that do it:
https://github.com/daCapricorn/ArcMenu - Apache 2.0
https://github.com/siyamed/android-satellite-menu/ - LGPL

Recently my team mates has started to work on an android application, which has more than 200 screens in an application.
In this case, I face one issue that when I need to explain the code or flow of screen to the other developer it would too much difficult. So I have to google to find the solution.
I am not much aware of the solution for android. In javascript, I have used jsDoc or swagger for API documentation, which offered a great way.
But in android, I unable to find the solution for coding documentation and screen flow.
Do I need any design tool to explain screen flow and documentation of an android application?
Let me know if you need more details or explanation I shall update the question accordingly or improve my question.
There is no way to create an automated screen / state transition diagram. If you use the Navigation Architecture component, you can use the navigation editor which is similar to Apple's storyboards. This is helpful but often times doesn't cover everything.
In our projects we rely on tools like overflow.io to create and maintain the screen flow diagrams. We use either design files from sketch or Adobe XD or screenshots from our app. This is a very manual process.
Firstly Go to File -> Project Structure. Under the Platform Settings heading, add or select an Android Platform. Go to the Documentation Paths tab and make sure the path to your SDK's documentation folder is added there - it should be [SDK]\docs\reference, where [SDK] is the full path to your SDK installation.
If it is not found you can add it manually.
After it is completed, use Ctrl+F1 while your cursor is on the item you want to display help for.
I'm looking to good looking libraries / plugins (just stuff) for android.
I mean something cool like material intro etc. Something what makes app more atractive. Please help me guys!
pretty general question. You'll probably get a better response if your question is more specific to a single problem.
here's a library which covers a lot of material widgets - https://github.com/wasabeef/awesome-android-ui
however a lot of this is now in the standard android design lib - http://android-developers.blogspot.co.nz/2015/05/android-design-support-library.html
I'm starting on a project with Nativescript. I want to create an app for Android and iOS. I want to create a navigation bar at the bottom of the screen.. I used a github project for Android for this in another project, but since this is different from native Android I don't know if I can use this..
The github project I mean is: https://github.com/roughike/BottomBar
Is it possible to use this in my Nativescript project and on both Android and iOS?
Yes you can use it in your project. I almost made a plugin using this lib months ago but no time :) I did start here wih another bottom bar library https://github.com/bradmartin/nativescript-bottomnavigation reusing native libs is the greatest thing about NativeScript for me and it's pretty easy once you know how to include the library into your project. Which it seems you might know about gradle and android projects so you shouldn't have much trouble :) feel free to look at my plugins or the hundreds of others for help.
I just finished, (in the last hour that is), struggling through getting my first NativeScript plugin going and this post was the piece that really helped me. Like Brad said, once you have the right bits in place, it goes fairly well. :)
According to this link www.androidbootstrap.com/ I am wondering what does it really do, what is for? Am I supposed to use it?
I've read all text on this main page but I am still confused and I do not know should I use it.
The main problem is I don't see the point. Could someone tell me what is it for?
I am open for new technologies but here is the example where I don't understand, but they say that using their package will shorten my work on application.
Regards and I am looking for any information.
I am wondering what does it really do
It generates a skeleton Android project containing specific libraries. It is reminiscent of the new-project wizard in Eclipse, just supporting more third-party libraries, particularly ones that may be a bit of a challenge to get working together.
I had a look at this project to provide a quick set up for actionbarsherlock and dagger DI.
I think it’s a good idea as it seeks to provide an android template, with an out the box solution including sherlock and dagger. But I couldn’t get it working on eclipse, and the forum had a lot of people saying the same (I think its designed for Intelij IDEA)
I also looked at androidkickstartr which is more mature, but again had import issues, so just made my own template and imported sherlock and dagger
I would like know:
1) If there is any Android UI library that looks just like the iPhone UI?
2) If there isn't any, I am planning on creating one as an open source project. Will I get sued by Apple?
Thanks,
The only Library I know is this one:
https://github.com/thiagolocatelli/android-uitableview
Its a copy of the UITableView from iOS (Like the IOS-version of a ListView).
To your other question:
I dont think that apple would sue someone for creating an open source library. They yould sue the Open source alliance for implementing it in android though.
