Dual Screen Experience Example

The application provides developers and designers with real world, working examples of how to make use of the dual-screen/foldable form factor in different ways. It enables an end-to-end experience using a prescribed user scenario, centered around the needs of a travelling salesperson who visits various fictitious stores which are interested in buying the salesperson’s fictitious products. It helps the salesperson select and navigate to multiple predetermined customer locations in a city, assist the salesperson's tasks in various ways during the visit to each potential client, and create a report of each visit.

When spanned across the folding feature, a Developer Mode option appears in the toolbar which shows more details regarding each screen - the code behind it, the user interface patterns it implements and the dual-screen controls it uses.

The application is built using the Foldable Navigation Component, BottomNavigationView, RecyclerView, Ink SDK, SnackbarContainer, Testing Kit.
