title: intermediates folder generated by Android Studio
body: <p>I have a fairly large viewpager app that I want to restyle to Material Design.  I used Android Studio to create a brand new app that doesn't do anything other than demonstrate a working viewpager, tabs, and Material Design.  The new app has a look that is exactly  what I want.  </p>
  
  <p>Examining the new app I see that AS generated a boat load of useful resource code in the intermediates directory that enabled Material Design.  So AS first generated the src/ code according to my choices in the "new project" process and then something in that code caused the build process to generate all of this useful Material Design support code.</p>
  
  <p>For instance, the generated app has a styles xml that begins with...</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar"&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If you ctrl-b on DarkActionBar it jumps to a huge file . . .</p>
  
  <pre><code>C:\Users\Gary\AndroidstudioProjects\MDShell\app\build\intermediates\exploded-aar\com.android.support\appcompat-v7\23.3.0\res\values\values.xml
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>that contains the definition.  I want the build process to do that same generation for my app.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT : This is the answer to my question...
  Once I included the following two lines in the gradle, everything I needed got generated in my app</p>
  
  <p>compile 'com.android.support:appcompat-v7:23.3.0'
  compile 'com.android.support:design:23.3.0'</p>
