Questions tagged [android-support-library]

The Android Support Library contains backported APIs from newer platforms and APIs that offer utility functionality.

Description:

The Android Support Library includes static "support libraries" that you can add to your Android application in order to use APIs that are either not available for older platform versions or that offer "utility" APIs that aren't a part of the framework APIs. The goal is to simplify your development by offering more APIs that you can bundle with your application so you can worry less about platform versions.
