Answer 1

As per the above code to navigate from one fragment to another on click of the button, there are many ways.

Navigation class gives you the createNavigateOnClickListner() method you just need to pass the fragment action id.

Try the below code

 mBtHome.setOnClickListener(Navigation.createNavigateOnClickListener(R.id.action_mainFragment_to_homePageFragment));
