Overview

• Material design is a comprehensive guide for visual, motion, and


interaction design across platforms and devices.

• Android now includes support for material design apps.

• Android provides the following elements for you to build material


design apps:

 A new theme.

 New widgets for complex views.

 New APIs for custom shadows and animations.


Material Theme
• The material theme provides a new style for your app, system
widgets that let you set their color palette, and default
animations for touch feedback and activity transitions.

Widgets for cards and lists
• Android provides two new widgets for displaying cards
and lists with material design styles and animations:
View Shadows

• In addition to the X and Y properties, views in Android


now have a Z property. This new property represents
the elevation of a view, which determines:

 The size of the shadow: views with higher Z


values cast bigger shadows.

 The drawing order: views with higher Z values


appear on top of other views.
Drawables

• These new capabilities for drawables help you


implement material design apps:

 Vector drawables are scalable without losing


definition and are perfect for single-color in-
app icons.

 Drawable tinting lets you define bitmaps and


tint them with a color at runtime.

 Color extraction lets you automatically


extract prominent colors from a bitmap
image.
Animations
• The new animation APIs let you create custom animations
for touch feedback in UI controls, changes in view state, and
activity transitions.
• These APIs let you:
 Respond to touch events in your views with touch
feedback animations.
 Hide and show views with circular reveal animations.
 Switch between activities with custom activity
transition animations.
 Create more natural animations with curved motion.
 Animate changes in one or more view pr
operties with view state change animations.
