The Android Support Library is not actually a single library, but rather a collection of libraries that can roughly be divided into two groups: compatibility and component libraries. For details, please see Understanding the Android Support Library.

provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.

library that contains the annotations for Android Jetpack.

support newer Android features on older Android versions.

library to reduce the number of nested views needed.

AndroidX library to position top-level application widgets, such as AppBarLayout and FloatingActionButton.

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 library to implement a Material Design drawer widget.

core library to enable emoji compatibility in Kitkat and newer devices to avoid the empty emoji characters.

AndroidX library to encapsulate part of the user interface or behavior into reusable components.

perform actions in response to a change in the lifecycle status of another component, such as activities and fragments.

share media contents and controls with other apps.

a framework for navigating between 'destinations' within an Android application that provides a consistent API whether destinations are implemented as Fragments, Activities, or other components.

a library to build interactive settings screens without needing to interact with device storage or manage the UI.

display large sets of data in your UI while minimizing memory usage.

provides the base Activity subclass and the relevant hooks to build a composable structure on top.

AndroidX library to implement a straightforward, performant way to initialize components at app startup.

Provides a stable but relatively compact binary serialization format that can be passed across processes or persisted safely.

replaces AndroidX ViewPager, addressing most of its predecessor’s pain-points, including right-to-left layout support, vertical orientation, modifiable Fragment collections, etc.

library to help with material design guidelines.

library that deals with Protocol Buffers (a.k.a., protobuf) – Google's language-neutral, platform-neutral, extensible mechanism for serializing structured data.

allows your application to interact with the Spotify app service.

OkHttp is an HTTP+HTTP/2 client for Android and Java applications.

image downloading and caching library.

library support for Kotlin coroutines.

a port of librespot, originally written in Rust, which has evolved into the most up-to-date open-source Spotify client. Additionally, this implementation provides a useful API to request metadata or control the player.
