NewtApp

Layout Layer

Now it is time to discuss in detail the second layer in a NewtApp, the layout layer. As a child of the application layer, the layout layer is where you will define central views of your application. For instance, in the Names application, the overview and the card view are each layout layer templates (see FIGURE 10.5).

In this chapter, we will only be looking at the protos used for card-style layouts. Consult the documentation for information on roll-style layouts.
