Android Design Library mentored our way to a lot of material design components all the way back to Android 2.1. In Design support Library the components like navigation drawer, floating action button, snackbar, tabs, floating labels and animation frameworks were introduced.

Needless to say the introduction of this library made things very easy for developers, except there was some functionality that still could not quench the custom thirst of a developer.
