MotionLayout & Motion Editor
summary
MotionLayout (ConstraintLayout 2.0) plus the Motion Editor in Android Studio 4.0 claim to replace manual animation code by declaring states in a separate MotionScene XML, animating between them with keyframes and cycles and wiring gestures like onClick or onSwipe in XML. The demo converts a ConstraintLayout to MotionLayout, scrubs timelines in the editor, runs complex staggered animations that play correctly, and shows integrations: nested MotionLayouts, RecyclerView-driven items, programmatic constraint tweaks and auto transitions — the editor is alpha but functional.
