What is AndroidX?

AndroidX is a major improvement to the original Android Support Library. It is a set of libraries that are unbundled from the operating system and provide backward compatibility as well as new features. AndroidX libraries ship independently of the Android OS and provide backward compatibility across Android versions. It restructures the Support Library into independently updatable libraries, meaning you can adopt libraries at your own pace. Commonly used for things like RecyclerView, AppCompat, ConstraintLayout and other Jetpack components.
