## What it is
A deprecated Android sample library implementing a parallax HeaderView that works with ViewPager swipe gestures. It provides example code for building news-stand-style scrolling header UIs in Java.

## Use cases
- add a parallax collapsing header to an Android ViewPager
- build a news stand style scrollable header UI
- keep header swipe working on left and right ViewPager edges
- learn how to implement parallax header views in Android Java

## When to choose
- you need a simple reference implementation of a parallax ViewPager header in Java
- you are maintaining a legacy Android app already using this pattern

## When to avoid
- you are starting a new Android project - the repo is deprecated and unmaintained
- you need Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, or modern Material collapsing toolbar solutions
- you need production support or bug fixes

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, mobile-framework
- domain: android-tools, mobile-development, frontend
- platform: jvm
- tags: parallax, header-view, viewpager, sample-code, deprecated, android
