title: What are the advantages and disadvantages of using XML design vs text tab in Android studio?
body: <p>It should be easier to use the design tab when designing an app, as you can drag and drop and it is more intuitive, but it seems many developers rather prefer to use the text tab (write the design in code).
  Furthermore, in the Udacity course videos I'm currently watching they teach you to design the app using code.</p>
  
  <p>Any special reasons why one is preferable to the other?</p>
