title: How do I create a Whatsapp like TextView and EditText?
body: <p>I'm trying to build a simple chat application for Android (using the Native SDK), and I'm having some trouble on structuring a nice layout for the UI , specially for the EditText and TextView elements. I'd like to create something like the Whatsapp App for Android:</p>
  
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/9SzcV.png" rel="noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/9SzcV.png" alt="enter image description here"></a></p>
  
  <p>The goal is to create a shape with this pointy edges in both of the elements. I've done some research and found out that I got to structure a resource file with the shape tag, and add it to the <code>android:background</code> attribute. But I just can't figure out how am I going to create those pointy edges as in the image. Any help is appreciated!</p>
