Demonstration

Below is a demonstration of the main function of the Navigation Drawer App:

// filepath: /home/guan/Documents/Code/Simple-Kotlin-Project/app/src/main/java/com/example/navigationdrawer/MainActivity.kt
package com.example.navigationdrawer

import android.content.Intent
import android.os.Bundle
import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity
import androidx.drawerlayout.widget.DrawerLayout
import com.google.android.material.navigation.NavigationView

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        val drawerLayout: DrawerLayout = findViewById(R.id.drawer_layout)
        val navView: NavigationView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view)

        // Setup the navigation drawer
        navView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener { menuItem ->
            // Handle navigation view item clicks here.
            menuItem.isChecked = true
            drawerLayout.closeDrawers()

            // Simple intent mechanism
            when (menuItem.itemId) {
                R.id.nav_api -> {
                    val intent = Intent(this, ApiActivity::class.java)
                    startActivity(intent)
                }
                // Add more cases for other menu items
            }
            true
        }
    }
}
