Slide out ListView from side like in new GMail App

Question

In the new GMail app you can slide out the list of folders from the left side.

I'd like to learn how this is done, and know if this is a feature of the Android SDK or did Google implement a custom effect to make this happen.

I've read about SliderDrawer and Fragments, but nothing seems similar to what they do.

Answer 1

This is the new DrawerLayout UI pattern. They have instructions on how to set it up in your app.

Answer 2

Use NavigationDrawer

and done with framelayout
