Android Question Animate views: How is it done exactly (best practice)?

[KMatle]

Moving / rotating a view is easy (there are some examples here). Additionally there is the animation lib to animate views: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/android-views-animation-tutorial.6967/#content

What's the best practice to animate a view (smooth!) on your own? I'm interested in the technique/background to get it smooth as in the lib.

In most cases the Animation library is not required.
You can use the simpler methods such as:
View.SetLayoutAnimated / SetColorAnimated / SetVisibleAnimated.

They are based on native animation APIs.
