ConstraintLayout vs. android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout

Just starting out with constraint layouts and hopefully a simple question.

In an XML layout file, is there any difference between using 

<ConstraintLayout ...

vs. 

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout ...

Is one of them preferred over the other?

I would suggest to use the 2nd one.

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout

Please refer to the Android documentation for more information

Note: ConstraintLayout is available as a support library that you can use on Android systems starting with API level 9 (Gingerbread). As such, we are planning on enriching its API and capabilities over time. This documentation will reflect those changes.
