AndroidAnimations

This is the project where we will analyze, study, and put into practice how to work with animations in Android.

• We are going to use Kotlin.
• We are going to practice pair programming.

Getting started

The repository contains a lot of screens with different uses of many Android frameworks for animations. If you are running the app from master some of them will crash with a TODO exception because we are expecting you to implement them. If you want to see the final application running move to branch 06-coordinator-layout.

There are TODO comments all around the code to practice the different frameworks, they are completely independent from each other so just pick the one you want to practice and implement it.

Tasks

Your task is to learn about Android animations and apply all these techniques to the app. We recommend you to follow exercises in a very specific order but feel free to do it your way.

The recommended order for exercises is:

• Before starting
  1. Fork this repository.
  2. Checkout master branch.
• Solve these exercises:
  1. Path drawing
  2. View animation
  3. Property animation
  4. Drawable graphics
  5. Layout transition
  6. Shared elements
  7. Coordinator layout

Considerations

If you get stuck, 06-coordinator-layout branch contains the finished kata using all animation frameworks. There are also branches for every single new library following the above order and PRs for them showcasing what are the steps we followed to finish the whole exercise.
