63. Developer options ช่วยคุณได้

65. Show layout
boundaries

66. Window Animation scale
5x
Transition Animation scale
5x
Animator duration scale
5x

67. Overdraw 4x or more
Overdraw 3x
Overdraw 2x

72. View Inflation worked on the UI Thread
Extremely View Inflation == Block the UI Thread

73. Hierarchy Viewer
Android Device Monitor

74. Is RelativeLayout expensive?
Yes, if you're using nested RelativeLayout.
But single RelativeLayout is cheaper than nested LinearLayout.
RelativeLayout LinearLayout

75. Total view count <= 80 views
Nested deep level <= 10 levels

76. More android:layout_weight
More Expensive
==

77. Use tint color with icon image
Original android:tint="#000000" android:tint="#ffcc00"

78. RecyclerView
Master Complex Lists
Use it!!!!!

79. ScrollView for some items
RecyclerView for many items
ScrollView RecyclerView

80. Avoid various dimension values
Better way, try to use global values
<dimen name="default_margin_padding_extra_small">1dp</dimen>
<dimen name="default_margin_padding_small">2dp</dimen>
<dimen name="default_margin_padding">4dp</dimen>
<dimen name="default_margin_padding_large">8dp</dimen>
<dimen name="default_margin_padding_extra_large">16dp</dimen>

81. Shadow in Material Theme (Lollipop+)
Button
Margin >= 10dp
Button
Margin < 10dp

82. Vector Drawable
Say goodbye to bitmap
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<vector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:width="80dp"
android:height="80dp"
android:viewportWidth="80"
android:viewportHeight="80">
<path
android:pathData="M0 0h24v24H0z" />
<path
android:fillColor="#FFFFFF"
android:pathData="M19.35 10.04C18.67 6.59 15.64 4 12 4 9.11 4 6.6 5.64 5.35

0-2.64-2.05-4.78-4.65-4.96zM14 13v4h-4v-4H7l5-5 5 5h-3z" />
</vector>

83. SVG >> VectorDrawable
http://inloop.github.io/svg2android/

84. Vector Drawable Compat
Yeah! It's also supported on pre-Lollipop

87. ทํายังไงให้รองรับ
หน้าจอได้หลายขนาด?

88. Too much fragmentation!
