Layouts and Views

 Layouts and Views

Layouts in Android are used to define the user interface of an application. There are several types of layouts available in Android such as LinearLayout, RelativeLayout, FrameLayout, etc. Views are the building blocks of an Android user interface. Each view is a widget that can display data or receive user input.

Here's an example of how to create a LinearLayout with several TextViews:

bash

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

   android:layout_width="match_parent"

   android:layout_height="match_parent"

   android:orientation="vertical" >

   

   <TextView

       android:id="@+id/textView1"

       android:layout_width="wrap_content"

       android:layout_height="wrap_content"

       android:text="TextView 1" />

   

   <TextView

       android:id="@+id/textView2"

       android:layout_width="wrap_content"

       android:layout_height="wrap_content"

       android:text="TextView 2" />

   

   <TextView

       android:id="@+id/textView3"

       android:layout_width="wrap_content"
