    What you could actually do is the following:

    Create a new folder for each desired configuration and name that folder with qualifiers.

    If you want your application to have a different main.xml layout for different screen sizes you should make the following folders in your project.

    /res/layout-small
    /res/layout-normal
    /res/layout-large
    /res/layout-xlarge
    

    In each of those folders have your different main.xml file layout (or whatever resource you want). Android will pick the one it matches with the device is running your application.

    You can even add different resources for different configurations for drawables and even for language.
