## What it is
Aphid FlipView is an Android UI component that implements the page-flip animation popularized by Flipboard. It is written in Java and ships with a demo app for Android 2.2+.

## Use cases
- add flipboard-style page flip animation to an android app
- create a magazine-like flipping view in android
- animate page turns with touch gestures on android
- build a book reader with realistic page flipping
- flip between views with a 3d page curl effect

## When to choose
- you need a Flipboard-like flip animation on Android and are on an older Java codebase
- you want a ready-made flip view component with adapter and async content support

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained library with recent Android support
- your project uses Kotlin or modern Android APIs
- you need a license for commercial use (no license is provided)
