## What it is
An Android library providing LabelView components that display corner labels (e.g., 'HD', 'POP') above ImageViews, TextViews, Buttons, or custom views. It supports XML attributes for orientation, colors, and text, plus a LabelViewHelper for custom views.

## Use cases
- show a corner label badge on an image in an Android app
- add a 'NEW' or 'HD' tag overlay to a button or text view
- display a diagonal ribbon label on any Android view
- add labels to custom Android views via a helper class

## When to choose
- you need simple corner labels/badges on Android views with minimal setup
- you want XML-attribute-driven label customization
- you need to add labels to custom views via a reusable helper

## When to avoid
- you need labels on non-Android platforms
- you need animated or complex overlay layouts rather than simple corner labels
- you need a library with frequent updates and active maintenance

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, frontend
- platform: jvm
- tags: android-view, label-overlay, badge, custom-view, gradle, android, mobile
