We create a basic downloader which can load and save files from the given internet links. We also very briefly cover use of multiple threads.

Exercises/Extensions:
1. Show file name along with the progress bar
2. If the file is an image (jpg/png), show it within the app using ImageView
3. Create a dialog to ask the user how they want to download the file, e.g. name, save path, perhaps also show the size of download
4. Allow the user to remove progress bars of downloaded files
There can be many extensions to this, implement whatever you think is going to improve the app.
