An Android library that draws customizable view shadows via a ShadowLayer, offering a CardView replacement with configurable shadow color, radius, corners, and foreground. It is deprecated by its author due to poor performance.
Use cases
- replace CardView with customizable shadow color on Android
- draw rounded corner shadows around Android views
- set per-corner radius and shadow offset on a view
- add selectable foreground ripple to a shadowed container
When to choose
- you need shadow color or per-corner radius control that CardView lacks and performance is not critical
- you are maintaining a legacy Android app already using this library
When to avoid
- starting a new Android project - the library is deprecated for performance reasons
- you need actively maintained, performant shadow rendering
