Study Notes
Android Studio's Graphical Layout Tool

Palette in Android Studio
- The Palette in Android Studio's graphical layout tool is located on the left-hand side of the screen and provides a list of available widgets and layouts that can be dragged and dropped into the design editor to create a user interface.
XML vs Graphical Layout Tool
