Components for Android: a declarative framework for efficient UIs
Summary: Implementing efficient scrollable UIs with the stock Android framework can be challenging for products with complex items and extensive variations of content. Components for Android is a powerful framework that enables Android developers to implement complex views that are performant by default through a simple declarative API. In this talk, you'll get an overview of how the framework works and its main features.
