Something like Twitter Bootstrap for Android?

Question

If you are a developer and know little about design, Twitter Bootstrapt saves a day (at least for me).

Is there something similar for android (native, not web)? Because at least for me the default buttons and the black background look really ugly (same as the simple browser buttons that Twitter-Bootstrap clicks so nicely)

http://developer.android.com/design/downloads/index.html gives some icons and fonts, but maybe there are more?

Answer 1

Android bootstrap

I recently met this project, and it looks very promising.

Feature List:

• Bootstrap buttons according to Bootstrap v3
• Rounded buttons
• Disabled Buttons
• Buttons of various sizes (from large to very small)
• Text buttons only
• Left, right, left and right, or just an icon button
• Font Amazing text according to Awesome v4 font
• Font animation Amazing text elements
• EditText Background

Answer 3

The Android Holo theme encodes UX recommendations in a theme that you can use on Android. If you don’t target 4.0, try this project, which has ported most of the theme up to 1.6. I haven't tried this myself yet, but it might be a good start.

Answer 4

Not the most elegant solution, but I use Twitter Bootstrap and Phonegap, which gives me the added benefit of multiple applications on different platforms. I know that you mentioned your native, but I wonder if people are more inclined towards these decisions, at least even with Windows joining the battle and needing development for 4 different platforms.

Answer 5

Despite the fact that the following design elements are not focused on the design part, they nevertheless create a project for you:

• AndroidKickstartR
• mvn archetype: generate

On the second, I recommend running the following command to filter Android projects from the list:

mvn archetype:generate | grep ndroid 

It will list at least the following project templates:

  50: remote -> com.googlecode.android-player-root-archetype:parent-archetype (-) 115: remote -> com.vektorsoft.demux.tools:demux-android-archetype (Create Android application structure for DEMUX Framework applications) 123: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:android-gcm-quickstart (Creates a skeleton for a GCM Android application) 124: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:android-library-quickstart (Creates a skeleton for an Android library) 125: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:android-quickstart (Creates a skeleton for an Android application) 126: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:android-release (Creates a skeleton for an Android application, 127: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:android-with-test (Creates a skeleton for an Android application and instrumentation tests) 128: remote -> de.akquinet.android.archetypes:stand-archetype (Creates a skeleton for an Android application using the Stand framework stack) 555: remote -> org.eclipse.xtend:xtend-android-archetype (-) 857: remote -> ru.nikitav.android.archetypes:release (-) 858: remote -> ru.nikitav.android.archetypes:release-robolectric (-)
