9,483 PointsDialogFragment is still available, it's just that you should now use the support version. So you just need to change your import statement, using
import android.support.v4.app.DialogFragment;
instead of
import android.app.DialogFragment
Hope this helps :)

1,650 PointsIn AlertDialogFragment: Use
import androidx.fragment.app.DialogFragment;
instead of
import android.app.DialogFragment;
And in MainActivity: Use
getSupportFragmentManager()
instead of
getFragmentManager()
Although, you can still use android.app.DialogFragment
if you want to, even though it's deprecated.
