If you do not want to use a library, it is pretty simple. I used to use a library before, but I started implementing a custom version. All you have to do is use a tabbed view and view pager. Then design all these pages in the tutorial as fragments. These fragments can have any buttons, in any position, and different styling as you like because you are implementing each fragment yourself.
