Is there an orthodox way to develop Android TV apps -
i have few problems understanding of android tv development. first of when had launched android tv project , trying create custom interface new activity, unfortunately couldn't find xml elements me. example got ideas whole interface provided android sdk collected in many fragments. can modify colors, fonts, fonts size, transparency maybe animation , etc. if need customize structure of controls , wtf wanna output "hello world" inside label!!! possible? read articles link https://developer.android.com/training/tv/index.html still useless me (maybe unique :) ). after suffering google guide, have done conclusion platform new , there no way thing except way provided google. right? if not, should find successful way?
the fragments provided google part of "leanback" framework templates designed make easy content providers start publishing android tv without having worry technical details of building tv ui. idea content provider can create channel feeding in video content. ease of use comes @ cost, customization difficult or impossible these templates.
however there nothing preventing creating own activities , fragments scratch , implementing custom ui tv, works other android device. add "android.intent.category.leanback_launcher" manifest , see yourself.
