Responsive UI with Constraint and Motion layout
summary
ConstraintLayout claims to replace nested layouts by providing a flat view hierarchy, cutting XML files and developer iterations, and the demo shows live editor edits (aspect ratios, guidelines) and a recreated YouTube-style animation that works. Animations use transitions between ConstraintSets to animate constraint sets; MotionLayout (a ConstraintLayout subclass) defines scene-to-scene animations in XML, triggers by click or swipe, supports keyframes but only affects direct children. Stable release lands about a year after beta.
