Improve UI with Custom Styles and Themes

[mukul-dev]

Overview:

We need to enhance the overall user interface (UI) of the app by implementing custom styles and themes. The goal is to provide a visually appealing, consistent, and user-friendly experience throughout the app. This includes updating buttons, text views, background colors, and other UI elements to follow a cohesive design.

Requirements:

1. Themes: Design custom theme for the app by creating or modifying styles.xml. Apply this theme across all activities and fragments. The theme should include:

   • Primary color (background)
   • Secondary color (buttons, active elements)
   • Font style and sizes
   • Consistent padding, margins, and spacing between UI elements.

2. UI Elements: Update UI elements such as buttons, input fields, text views, and calendars to reflect the new theme. Make sure to apply uniform - styles for:

   • Buttons**: Consistent shape, size, color, and highlight effects.
   • TextViews**: Typography that is easy to read, aligned with the theme's font and colors.
   • Calendar: Ensure the calendar matches the theme (can use custom styles for marked days and dates).
   • Make use of Material Design Components for Android to ensure modern UI practices. Update any outdated or default UI components with Material Design ones.

3. Animations & transitions: Add animations or transitions where necessary to make the UI feel smoother (e.g., button clicks, transitions between fragments).

Optional Features:

• Add a dark mode option for users by creating a dark theme variation. Users should be able to toggle between light and dark modes.
• Implement a theme selector in the app’s settings (with a new menu option using the three dots in top right corner), allowing users to switch between different color schemes.

Importance of this Feature:

Improving the UI enhances the overall user experience, making the app more engaging, professional, and easier to use. A good UI can also increase user retention and satisfaction.

Additional Notes:

• Ensure consistency across the entire app for a polished look.
• Feel free to propose new UI design ideas that align with Android best practices.
• Feel free to ask questions if you need further clarification or assistance.
