2.3.6. Create Activity Step

In the Create Activity step (Fig. 2.6), you select the template for your app’s Activity. Templates save you time by providing preconfigured starting points for commonly used app designs. Figure 2.7 briefly describes the three templates shown in Fig. 2.6. For this app, select Blank Activity, then click Next >. We’ll use the other templates in later chapters.
