| <p>Android graphics are powered by a custom 2D graphics library and OpenGL ES 1.0 |
| for 3D graphics.</p> |
| |
| <h2>2D Graphics</h2> |
| <p>Android offers a custom 2D graphics library for drawing shapes and images.</p> |
| <p>The {@link android.graphics} and {@link android.graphics.drawable} |
| packages are where you'll find the classes used for drawing in two-dimensions. |
| For common drawing tasks, though, the {@link android.graphics.drawable} package |
| is where you'll find what you need.</p> |
| <p>For an introduction to drawing shapes and images, read the |
| <a href="2d-graphics.html">2D Graphics</a> document.</p> |

| <h2>3D with OpenGL</h2> |
| <p>High performance 3D graphic utilities are provided on Android with the OpenGL ES API. |
| You'll find the OpenGL APIs in the {@link android.opengl} package. |
