How to Make Android Apps 27
In this tutorial I provide an Android Material Design sliding tab example program and cover ViewPager and FragmentPagerAdapter. You are going to need these 2 files SlidingTabLayout.java and SlidingTabStrip.java.
This will allow us to use the newest form of sliding tabs that is also backwards compatible. I did my best to keep everything as simple as possible so that you can use this code in your applications immediately. The code follows the video below.
