FlexibleAdapter is a Java library for Android that consolidates many RecyclerView Adapter features—multi-select with ActionMode, drag & drop, swipe, expandable items, sticky headers, endless scroll—into one library. It is now an archived, API-frozen legacy project published to Maven Central for apps still using the Android View (XML) system.

Use cases

  • implement multi-select with action mode in a RecyclerView list
  • add drag-and-drop reordering and swipe-to-dismiss to Android lists
  • show expandable/collapsible list items with sticky headers
  • implement endless scrolling and fast scroll in RecyclerView
  • add undo and selection coherence to list interactions
  • filter and search items in a RecyclerView adapter

When to choose

  • your Android app uses the legacy View/XML system and needs a feature-rich RecyclerView adapter
  • you want one stable library instead of several incompatible adapter libraries
  • you need a mature, frozen API that won't change under you

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new Android project—use Jetpack Compose LazyColumn/LazyRow instead
  • you target Kotlin Multiplatform or Compose Multiplatform
  • you need new features or active bug-fix support
