An extension library for Google's Android percent support layout library, adding PercentLinearLayout plus percentage-based sizing for width, height, margin, padding, min/max dimensions, and text size. It lets developers reference screen width or height explicitly (e.g. 50%w) when defining view dimensions.

Use cases

• make views sized as a percentage of screen width or height
• create square views using percentage dimensions
• set margins and padding proportionally in Android layouts
• scale TextView text size with screen percentage
• use percent layouts inside a ScrollView
• adapt Android UI across different screen sizes

When to choose

• maintaining a legacy Android project already using the percent support library
• you need PercentLinearLayout or percentage-based padding, min/max, or textSize that the official library lacks
• targeting old Android versions where percent layouts were the adaptation approach

When to avoid

• starting a new Android project - use ConstraintLayout with guideline/percent dimensions instead
• you need actively maintained or updated dependencies
• targeting modern Android development with Jetpack Compose
