I have been away from Android app creation for quite a while and has just recently begun my new App.
Now i thought i would test out this new Android Studio and therefore downloaded it.
When i started my project it asked for a fragment and i wasnt quite sure what it ment (i know what a fragment is!).
When it started the project i had a activity_main and a fragment_main. And now every time i want to create a new activity it requires me to create an additional fragement.
Can anyone explain to me why this is happening (maybe ive missed something).

Fragments cannot live on their own--they must be hosted by an activity or another fragment. The fragment's view hierarchy becomes part of, or attaches to, the host's view hierarchy. Note: Some Android Jetpack libraries, such as Navigation, BottomNavigationView , and ViewPager2 , are designed to work with fragments.
If you want to start a new instance of mFragmentFavorite , you can do so via an Intent . Intent intent = new Intent(this, mFragmentFavorite. class); startActivity(intent); If you want to start aFavorite instead of mFragmentFavorite then you only need to change out their names in the created Intent .
A Fragment is not an Activity. Fragments are hosted inside a FragmentActivity.
You can add your fragment to the activity's view hierarchy either by defining the fragment in your activity's layout file or by defining a fragment container in your activity's layout file and then programmatically adding the fragment from within your activity.
Fragments are part of Google's UI design philosophy since Honeycomb (see embedded link).
