Constraint layout

Constraint layout allows developers to create layouts using constraints rather than nested view groups. It establishes relationships between views to position and size them, improving performance over deeply nested layouts. Constraint layout is a new view group that reduces the need to manually edit XML and allows visual editing of constraints in Android Studio's blueprint mode. It is backward compatible to API level 9 and provides tools like inspector, auto-connect, and inference to help developers build constraint-based layouts.
