Droidcon NYC 2015

After the introduction of Material Design and Android Lollipop, animations and great design finally got the attention they deserve. New concepts have been introduced and finally a guideline exists. But Material Design goes way further than just elevations, cards and beautiful colors. Animations now are a big factor and play an important role in applications, a role that is not only related to a wow factor, but actually animations are a big friend of the User Experience of an App.

We will go through transition animations that helps the user understand how your app works and how to guide him in the easiest way possible and I'll show some do and donts of navigation and animation made by some popular apps. We'll also talk some UX points so you can plan better how the user will navigate through your app. After that, you will never think about animation in the same way again!

This talk is an evolution of my well received talk at Droidcon Montreal, this time, following the request of many people, I'll have some example codes and some application demos to show how to achieve some animations in code.
