Android Bootstrap is an Android library which provides custom views styled according to the Twitter Bootstrap Specification. This allows you to spend more time on development rather than trying to get a consistent theme across your app, especially if you are already familiar with the Bootstrap Framework.
Add the following dependency to your build.gradle, ensuring you replace 'X.X.X' with the latest version on the button above:
dependencies {
compile 'com.beardedhen:androidbootstrap:{X.X.X}'
}You should also override your application class with the following:
public class SampleApplication extends Application {
@Override public void onCreate() {
super.onCreate();
TypefaceProvider.registerDefaultIconSets();
}
}You should then checkout the library and investigate the sample code, which covers most of the features. The sample app is also available on Google Play.
If you have a question about how to use the project, please ask a question on StackOverflow, using the tag android-bootstrap-widgets.
If you think you have found a bug in the library, you should create a new issue instead.
The javadoc for the project is hosted on Github.

Custom styles can be applied to any of the views in this library by creating a class which implements BootstrapBrand, and setting it on the View. Please see the sample code of BootstrapButton for more detail.
class CustomBootstrapStyle implements BootstrapBrand {
// specify desired colors here
}
BootstrapButton btn = new BootstrapButton(context);
btn.setBootstrapBrand(new CustomBootstrapStyle(this);Contributions are very welcome! There are 3 main ways you can help out:
- Add more Icon Typefaces, using the instructions here
- Help implement views which are present in the Twitter Bootstrap Specification but are not yet in this library.
- Raise an issue if you see a bug or are unsure on how something works, or even better - send a pull-request with a fix!
This project uses Semantic Versioning. There are several breaking changes in V2.X of the library, including:
- AwesomeTextView replaces FontAwesomeText
- Various altered method signatures/attributes for views
- Global BootstrapBrand/BootstrapSize attributes replace view-specific enums
Please consider what effect these changes might have on your app before upgrading!
