Developing apps using UI elements
AIM
The aim of this task is for you to demonstrate how more complicated UI elements can be used.
TASKS
1. A simple booklist
Create a custom list using RecyclerView that shows information about some books with the following information (a crude design for each row is below): an icon, and name and book rating on two lines.
+------------------------------+
|Icon| Book Title |
| | Rating |
+------------------------------+
In the submission, you must show the screen shot and the code that renders the Row Adapter code. You can use any icons (i.e. they need not be associated with the book title or rating). You need 10 rows of test data in your application (which can be stored in an object).
