This tutorial is an introduction to the built in animation frameworks that are part of the Android UI library. Without writing any animation/drawing code, you can do 2 types of animations - layout transitions that affect ViewGroups, and sequences inside a View. You can also do frame by frame animation, but this tutorial will not cover that. The basics covered here affect layout transitions, and animation of a View itself, using tweening animation, which includes each of the following effects (or any combination) - Alpha, Rotate, Scale, and Translate.
