## What it is
An Android library that provides material design app intro/onboarding screens with animations and a fluent Java API. It supports predefined and custom slides, parallax, fade effects, autoplay, and permission request slides.

## Use cases
- add a material design onboarding intro to my android app
- create welcome slides with animations in android
- show a permission request slide during app first launch
- build an app walkthrough with parallax and fade effects
- add autoplay intro slides to my android application

## When to choose
- you want a ready-made, material-compliant intro/onboarding flow for an Android app
- you need simple customization with a fluent Java API
- you want built-in support for permission request slides and autoplay

## When to avoid
- you are not building an Android app
- you need Jetpack Compose-based onboarding rather than a Java view-based library
- you need a fully custom intro experience beyond slides and animations

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, animation
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, web-design
- platform: jvm
- tags: material-design, onboarding, app-intro, slides, fluent-api, jitpack, android
