## What it is
Blurry is an easy-to-use Android library for applying blur effects to views and bitmaps. It supports configurable radius, downsampling, color filters, async processing, and overlay animations.

## Use cases
- blur a background view behind a dialog in android
- apply gaussian blur to a bitmap in android
- create frosted glass overlay effect on android
- blur an image asynchronously in an android app
- capture a view and blur it into an imageview

## When to choose
- you need simple, fluent-API blur effects on Android views or bitmaps
- you want async blurring with animation support on API 21+

## When to avoid
- you need GPU shader-based real-time blurring in Jetpack Compose
- your project targets Android below API 21

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: image-processing, animation
- domain: mobile-development, image-processing
- platform: -
- tags: blur-effects, android-ui, bitmap, java, kotlin, android, mobile
