Proteus is meant to be a drop-in replacement to Android’s XML LayoutInflater. Built in order to modify your apps user interface, without a release. You can host your layouts on a server and send them over the wire instead of bundling them in your APK.

  • Layout A Layout describes the view hierarchy, think of it as being an XML layout file in Android. In Proteus it is currently represented in JSON. In JSON, the type attribute will contain the value equal to the nodes present in XML.

Head over to the Layouts page for more details.

  • Data Data (optional) represents the dynamic parts of the Layout. It is similar to Android Data bindings. The only difference being that this is mostly runtime, whereas Android by default has compile time bindings.

Refer Data as well as Data Bindings for more details.
