Create your first Tile in Wear
summary
A hands‑on codelab that uses the Tiles API and Android Studio emulator to build a real Wear tile: implement a TileProvider service, separate layout logic in onTileRequest / onResourcesRequest, and match graphics with a resourceVersion id. The demo wires timelines, Box/Column layout, an arc showing step progress from a mock repository that returns random counts, adds a clickable action (load vs launch), and needs the bind_tile_provider permission in the manifest; the tile previews and refresh successfully in the emulator.
