Android - Alternatives to Navigation Drawer

Question

I am trying to implement something similar to a Navigation Drawer, but not so complicated:

What would be the best way to do it? I have looked into using the Android Navigation Drawer, but it seems much too complicated for my needs. Also, not so customizable.

The obvious guess would be to use a hidden layout that gradually shows up while the user drags towards the right. I am, however, looking for a library / easy and reliable solution.

Answer 1

As a suggestion,

Using library (if you found one) just for visible/hide a portion of layout is not something good. So you have basically two options.

1. you can create two static fragments (one for menu, one for larger screen) and hide/visible menu fragment when you need. You may need to set the layout width at run-time.

2. Define a drawer(though you do not like that), but it would be the most easy to handle and reliable way to achieve your requirement. You just need simple listview and a drawer.
