9,483 PointsHi Rasum. There are a few ways to use colours in XML:
- using one of the pre-defined colours from the Android system. For example:
android:textColor="@android:color/white"
- using the hex colour codes. For example
android:textColor="#fff092b0"
(although hardcoding values is not best practice, better use the next option) - using the
colors.xml
resource file, just as we use thestrings.xml
resource file instead of hardcoding strings. For example:android:textColor="@color/primaryColor"
I hope that helps you complete the challenge :)
