Android Development Patterns

Now before we jump into Step 1: Review a Sample App, I’d like you to watch this short Android Development Patterns video on Tabs and ViewPager so that you can become familiar with the Android ViewPager component. After you are done, continue to the next step!

Note: You’ll hear the term “Fragments” in the video. We have not talked about Fragments yet, so don’t worry if you don’t understand everything perfectly.

Background context

This video is part of the Android Development Patterns created by Developer Advocates Ian Lake and Joanna Smith. (You saw them in the videos and articles from Lesson 4.)

Android Development Patterns will teach you how to build better apps by explaining the fundamental components of Android development, the reasoning behind them, and best practices for using them in your app. Feel free to check out these videos later.
