Complete Review of Support Library
summary
A practical review of Android Support Libraries enumerates all 18 libraries and notes the release at version 23.1.1 with a fast early revision cadence. Demonstrations compare AppCompat AlertDialog with the platform dialog, show a working RecyclerView calendar built by customizing LayoutManager and ItemDecoration, reveal how to inspect Gradle dependency trees, explain that enabling MultiDex yields multiple .dex files in the APK, and mention Android TV samples failing networked demos.
