Android FlatUI

FlatUI is a library that lets you use native android widgets with a better and customized look.

You can define the widgets in XML or create on run time in JAVA. Even though the widgets are customized, you can create your own widget styles via attributes.

There are many predefined themes inside this library and there will be a functionality to add your own colors to it soon.

Features included

Creating widgets inside XML.
Creating widgets inside JAVA.
Using defined themes.
Changing theme at runtime.
Changing ActionBar theme.

Including into your project

This library is pushed to Maven Central, so you just need to add the following dependency to your build.gradle.

dependencies {
    compile 'com.github.eluleci:flatui:0.1.2'
}

IMPORTANT - If you want to use the widgets inside xml, you need to add this line to the root element of layout and use necessary parameters with 'flatui' tag

xmlns:flatui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"

Main Java functions

// Setting default theme to avoid to add the attribute "theme" to XML 
// and to be able to change the whole theme at once
FlatUI.setDefaultTheme(FlatUI.DEEP);

// to change the color of the action bar at runtime
FlatUI.setActionBarTheme(this, FlatUI.DEEP, false, false);

// if you are using ActionBar of compatibility library, get drawable and set it manually to support action bar.
getSupportActionBar().setBackgroundDrawable(FlatUI.getActionBarDrawable(FlatUI.DEEP, false));
