Choosing Fragment Support Library

Our Fragment class use the v4 Support Library. The v4 libraries are designed to be used with Android 2.3 (API level 9) and higher. They include the largest set of APIs compared to the other libraries, including support for application components, user interface features, accessibility, data handling, network connectivity, and programming utilities.
