This chapter has provided a general overview of material design, the floating action button and Snackbar before working through an example project that makes use of these features.
Both the floating action button and the Snackbar are part of the material design approach to user interface implementation in Android. The floating action button provides a way to promote the most common action within a particular screen of an Android application. The Snackbar provides a way for an application to both present information to the user and also allow the user to take action upon it.
