Some of the design stuff and animations are only available in android 5.0 and above only, like the FAB button
and reveal effect
.
2 options
Either write the code for animations and layout yourself for pre 5.0 devices
or
Use libraries that do the same thing like fab button and reveal effect etc
There are a lot of open source libraries that you can use in your project for e.g FAB button, arc animation etc.. to support devices before 5.0 Also then you don't forget to read there licence.
So, in short you will get small components from here and there like reveal effect, arc animation, fab etc use them to achieve the effect.
