Improving UI responsiveness: Use of INCLUDE and MERGE tags to re-use layouts

[ShriyaSalian]

Description

To improve the application's UI responsiveness, taking into consideration the further expanse of the project as well, as more scenes are included, re-usability of layouts to embed the scene specific layout in the generalised layout would enhance the efficiency. I propose to use the include and merge tags for this. This is a powerful way to create reusable layouts. The merge tag will help to avoid redundant layouts, further enhancing the application.

Mocks

Example: the mini game end xml files.

Portion of the specific xml file with tag

The merge content(game_end.xml):

Output:

Acceptance Criteria

The repeated code can be written in a separate file under the merge tag and the existing xml files are thus modified

Update [Required]

• [ ] Additional xml file is created containing the re-usable layout and the specific xml files use the include tag to increase the UI responsiveness

  Enhancement to Update [Optional]

• [ ] Unnecessary nested layouts omitted to improve the performance

Checklist

• [ ] I have performed a self-review of my own code
• [ ] My PR follows the style guidelines of this project

Definition of Done

• [ ] All of the required items are completed.
