Description
Some functions use color as the prefix verb, others use theme or tint.
What is the pattern here? When should I use which verb when adding functions?
- tint: currently used only with drawables. To apply a tint to the drawable.
- color: ?? (Used e.g. with MaterialButtons to apply tint to them.)
- theme ??
