The Curious Case of Android Button
14:10/14:50
We interact with buttons every day to get coffee, order pizza, or start a Gradle build. They may look simple and straightforward, but they have a fundamental role in our environment: create a sense of power. We all love to feel empowered and we all hate being frustrated by bad design. Your users know this as well, they want to feel rewarded when they interact with your UI, and they will quickly drop your app if they get annoyed. At Yelp, we get tens of millions button clicks a day. In this talk, we will provide a deep dive into the Android framework to understand how buttons are rendered.
