ActionBar and sliding out menu in android

Question

I just want to create an action bar as foursquare app.

and i want to show a slide out menu when the home button pressed just like the image shown.

I am able to create the custom action bar but not like the first image. Please provide any tutorial which will help to create the Action bar

Answer 1

You may use the version included in the Google Android SDK (instead of an 3rd party lib.)

Read about Navigation Drawer for more details.

Answer 2

SlidingMenu is a great and easy-to-use library for this.

edit: Sorry, thought the question was only about the slide-in menu. For actionbar, your best library will be ActionbarSherlock
