Styles, Themes and dimens = CSS ?

There are many approaches to how to implement the entire world of styles themes and dimens,

one approach is to use it like CSS - where every View in a Layout is set with his own style and dimen.

After much thought, we do not want to make our resources as a CSS style, why?

• Hard to maintain
• Hard to read
• Usually not re-usable. Once you set the resource for a View, it never changes because it’s too compilcated

Our approach should be to use styles, themes and dimens only when ever:

• There is a re-use of them in more than one View
• They are really going to change between different configuration (Screen sizes, orientation…)

Otherwise - simply do the styling directly in the xml layout.
