## What it is
A small Android library and sample code by Roman Nurik demonstrating the swipe-to-dismiss UI pattern for ListView and other views. It is explicitly marked as unmaintained and serves mostly as reference material.

## Use cases
- add swipe-to-dismiss to a ListView
- implement swipe-to-delete list items in Android
- learn how the swipe-to-dismiss gesture works
- reference sample code for touch gesture handling
- port swipe-to-dismiss behavior to custom views

## When to choose
- you want a minimal reference implementation of the swipe-to-dismiss pattern
- you are studying Android touch gesture and animation techniques
- you maintain a legacy Java Android codebase and want a tiny drop-in sample

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with ongoing bug fixes
- you use modern Android components like RecyclerView, where better-supported alternatives exist
- you need Kotlin-first or Jetpack Compose implementations

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools
- platform: -
- tags: swipe-to-dismiss, listview, sample-code, android-ui-pattern, android
