## What it is
FloatingView is an Android library that animates a target view floating above an anchor view with customizable transitions. It provides a builder API for configuring offsets and floating effects like scale transitions.

## Use cases
- animate a badge floating above a button in android
- show a floating view with scale animation over an anchor view
- add cool floating animation effects to android views
- make a view fly up from another view in android
- customize floating transition animations for android ui

## When to choose
- you need animated floating overlays on android views
- you want a simple builder-based api for view float animations
- you need customizable floating transitions like scale effects

## When to avoid
- you need floating windows over other apps (requires overlay permission, different approach)
- you are not developing for android
- you need an actively maintained library with recent releases
