Anko vs. XML

A collection of Android layouts in both XML and Anko. As there is very little Anko documentation, I have found it is often easiest to search for a solution in XML and translate that to Anko... Collecting things here to be able to find them back later and skip the XML step.

• Layout
  • TableLayout
• View element
  • Switch
  • Spinner

Kotlin and Anko

A collection of other Kotlin and Anko things.

UI

• Menu The menu and menu items need to be created using XML. Then use Kotlin to inflate the menu and set the onClickListener.

Little Anko things that make life a bit easier

• Starting an Activity: startActivity<MainActivity>().
• Creating a Toast: toast("text").
