## What it is
An Android RecyclerView extension library providing advanced list interactions such as swipe-to-dismiss, drag-and-drop sorting, and expandable items. It is written in Java, published on Maven Central, and works on API level 14+ with AndroidX.

## Use cases
- add swipe-to-dismiss to a recyclerview list
- implement drag and drop reordering of list items
- create expandable sections in a recyclerview
- build a to-do list with swipe actions on android
- reorder items in a grid like a playlist app
- add headers and footers to a recyclerview

## When to choose
- you need Inbox-style swipe gestures or Play Music-style drag-and-drop sorting in an Android RecyclerView
- you want a mature, well-documented Java library with many example implementations
- your project targets older Android API levels down to 14

## When to avoid
- you use Jetpack Compose instead of the View/RecyclerView system
- you need actively developed features - the latest release is 1.0.0 from 2018 and updates are sparse
- your project still uses the old support libraries rather than AndroidX

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, frontend
- platform: jvm
- tags: recyclerview, drag-and-drop, swipe-to-dismiss, expandable-list, java, androidx, android, mobile
