How to make Fragments backward compatible?

To ensure that your Android app's Fragments are backward compatible, you need to utilize the Android Support Library, specifically the Fragment class from the androidx.fragment.app package. This allows your app to support older versions of Android while still utilizing modern Fragment features.

Here’s a simple example of how to create a Fragment that is compatible with older Android versions:

// Import necessary libraries import androidx.fragment.app.Fragment; import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.LayoutInflater; import android.view.View; import android.view.ViewGroup; public class MyFragment extends Fragment { @Override public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) { // Inflate the layout for this fragment return inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_my, container, false); } }
