## What it is
A collection of official Android sample apps demonstrating the Android Data Binding Library, including basic layout expressions, binding adapters, and two-way data binding. The repository has been deprecated and is no longer maintained.

## Use cases
- learn android data binding basics
- see two-way data binding examples
- understand binding adapters with viewmodels
- study mvvm patterns on android
- find sample code for layout expressions

## When to choose
- learning legacy data binding concepts in existing codebases
- referencing binding adapter patterns for older android projects

## When to avoid
- starting a new android project (data binding is deprecated in favor of Jetpack Compose)
- looking for maintained or updated samples
- needing support or issue resolution

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, state-management, developer-tools
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, tutorials
- platform: jvm
- tags: data-binding, mvvm, jetpack, sample-code, deprecated, android, mobile
