I'd say there most of what you need to know is available at Android Developers. Specifically:

• User Interface/Layout
• Declaring Layout

In general, I'd say there are two layouts that are used rather frequently:

• LinearLayout which can contain rows or columns of child nodes, depending on its orientation. The space available is distributed to the child nodes depending on their weight.
• RelativeLayout which allows for positioning of certain nodes specifically in relation to other nodes, with attributes such as below and toRightOf.

To make an area scrollable, you simply place it within a ScrollView
