Understanding the Android Support Library.
- AndroidX Activity (Utility)
provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.

library that contains the annotations for Android Jetpack.
- Arch (Utility)
helper for other arch dependencies, including JUnit test rules that can be used with LiveData.
- AppCompat (Utility)
support newer Android features on older Android versions.
- Asynclayoutinflater (UI Component)
AndroidX library to inflate layouts asynchronously to avoid jank in the UI.
- Biometric (Utility)
authenticate with biometrics or device credentials, and perform cryptographic operations.
- Android Support Library collections (Utility)
standalone efficient collections.
- Coordinatorlayout (UI Component)
AndroidX library to position top-level application widgets, such as AppBarLayout and FloatingActionButton.
- Androidx Core (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
- AndroidX Cursor Adapter (Utility)
static library support version of the framework's CursorAdapter.
- Android Support Library Custom View (UI Component)
a module to implement custom views. Part of the Android Support Library.
- Documentfile (UI Component)
a library to view a file document.
- Drawerlayout (UI Component)
AndroidX library to implement a Material Design drawer widget.
- AndroidX Fragment (UI Component)
AndroidX library to encapsulate part of the user interface or behavior into reusable components.
- Interpolator (UI Component)
AndroidX library to use animation interpolators on older platforms.
- androidx.legacy (Utility)
a static library that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or utility APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs.
- Lifecycle (Utility)
perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.
- Loader (Utility)
library to load data for your UI that survives configuration changes.
- AndroidX Local Broadcast Manager (Utility)
an application-wide event bus and embraces layer violations in your app: any component may listen events from any other.
- Media (Utility)
share media contents and controls with other apps.
- Print (Utility)
a library to print photos, docs, and other graphics and images.
- Room (Utility)
a persistence library that provides an abstraction layer over SQLite to allow for more robust database access while harnessing the full power of SQLite.

provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.
- AndroidX Security (Utility)
AndroidX library to safely manage keys and encrypt files and sharedpreferences.
- Slidingpanelayout (UI Component)
AndroidX library to implement a sliding pane UI pattern.
- Sqlite (Utility)
library that contains abstract interfaces along with basic implementations which can be used to build your own libraries that access SQLite.

implemtation of the swipe-to-refresh UI pattern.
- Tracing (Utility)
AndroidX library to write trace events to the system trace buffer.
- Vectordrawable (UI Component)
AndroidX library to render vector graphics.
- Android Jetpack VersionedParcelable (Utility)
Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.
- Viewpager (UI Component)
AndroidX library to display Views or Fragments in a swipeable format.
- Capacitor (Utility)
a cross-platform API and code execution layer that makes it easy to call Native SDKs from web code and to write custom Native plugins.
- Capacitor Plugins (Utility)
plugins for Capacitor.
- darryncampbell-cordova-plugin-intent (Utility)
a general purpose intent shim layer for cordova appliations on Android.
- Capacitor (Utility)
a cross-platform API and code execution layer that makes it easy to call Native SDKs from web code and to write custom Native plugins.
- Tink (Utility)
a multi-language, cross-platform library that provides cryptographic APIs that are secure, easy to use correctly, and hard(er) to misuse.
- Cordova Music Controls Plugin (UI Component)
a Cordova plugin displaying music controls in notifications (cordova-plugin-music-controls).
- SQLCipher for Android (Utility)
Android SQLite API based on SQLCipher (for encrypting databases to safely store sensible data)
- Apache Cordova (Development Framework)
formerly known as
PhoneGap: enables software programmers to build applications for mobile devices using CSS3, HTML5, and JavaScript instead of relying on platform-specific APIs.
