MockApp 2.0.6

The following guidelines detail the functionality of a library integrated into Android Studio. For further information, visit the GitHub repository: MockAppDemo.

In summary, this application offers the following key features:

1. Design user interfaces directly on your mobile device.
2. Efficiently share your UI as an APK directly from your phone with clients.
3. Incorporate your UI into an Android Studio project with a single line of code.

The user interface of this application is entirely constructed using MockApp.

Traditionally, user interface prototypes are developed using tools like Zeplin and Figma. Developers then extract assets from these tools to recreate the UI in Android's XML format. If any changes occur, this cycle must repeat, leading to two separate asset collections: one from the design tool and another in Android XML that must be kept in sync. This disparity can prolong the development cycle, which is generally undesirable.

This prompts the question: why not experiment with user interfaces directly within the Android framework (Views)? With this approach, design assets transform into genuine app assets rather than mere visual representations.

The primary objective of this tool is to unify the asset collection for both design and production code, streamlining the development process significantly.
