‫Welcome back.
‫In this section we're going to learn about the rest folder in Android Studio.
‫The rest folder is a crucial directory within an Android project, containing various types of resources
‫that your app uses.
‫The terms Rest stands for resources, and it's where you organize different types of assets needed for
‫your Android application.
‫The global folder.
‫This folder contains drawable resources such as images, PNGs, JPGs, Jeff, Xaml based drawable shapes,
‫and other graphical assets.
‫These resources are used for UI elements like image views, image buttons, text views, and much more.
‫The layout folder contains XML layout files that define the structure and appearance of your app's user
‫interface.
‫Each XML file corresponds to a different screen or part of your app.
‫Mipmap contains launcher icons for different screen densities.
‫It's used to store the app's launcher icon in various resolutions.
‫The values folder contains Xaml files that store various values such as strings, colors, dimensions,
‫styles, and themes.
‫These values can be referenced in your code and XML layouts, providing a centralized way to manage
‫app resources.
‫Xaml folder used for storing arbitrary Xaml files such as configuration files, and there are a lot
‫of files and folders that can be used in the resources folder in Android projects such as menu, row,
‫and Name and others.
‫So the rest folder is a key component of Android's resource system, providing a structured way to organize
‫and manage different types of assets used in your application.
‫It helps in creating adaptable and visually consistent applications across various densities and devices.
