A window into transitions
summary
Walks through Android Transitions API from setup to custom transitions with runnable techniques: use captureStart/captureEnd and createAnimator for custom animators, rely on built-ins like changeBounds, fade, slide, explode, and compose a shared element transition with activityOptions (API 21+; AppCompat inherits behavior). Covers postponing/startPostponedEnterTransition for orientation and ViewPager reentry, remapping shared elements via setEnter/Exit callbacks, excluding status/navigation bars, and a reparenting clipping trick — all demonstrated with working sample code on Android samples.
