How often do you embed HTML code into your applications?

Rarely. Mainly use WebView to display web content, such as pages with privacy policies, terms of use, or to integrate third-party services that provide their interfaces as web pages.

Embedding small HTML fragments directly into resources or strings can be useful for formatting simple text using basic tags (for example, for bold or italic fonts in TextView).

Example of displaying formatted HTML in TextView:

// In the resources file (strings.xml)
// <string name="formatted_text">This is <b>bold</b> and <i>italic</i> text.</string>

// In Activity/Fragment code
// val formattedString = getString(R.string.formatted_text)
// textView.text = HtmlCompat.fromHtml(formattedString, HtmlCompat.FROM_HTML_MODE_LEGACY)

The main thing is to avoid excessive use of HTML for creating the main UI, as this can lead to performance issues, support complexity, and inconsistency with the native look of the app. In most cases, native Android components are preferred for creating UI.
