## What it is
An Android library that renders a 2D metaball-style loading animation as a custom view. It includes a debug mode for tweaking visual parameters.

## Use cases
- add a metaball loading animation to an android app
- custom animated loading indicator for android
- gooey liquid loading effect in android
- learn how to draw metaball effects on android canvas
- tunable loading animation parameters for android ui

## When to choose
- you want a distinctive gooey/metaball loading animation in an Android app
- you need a small MIT-licensed custom view to drop into an Android project

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with recent updates or support
- you are not building for Android
- you need a broad set of loading indicators rather than one metaball effect

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: animation, ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, graphics
- platform: jvm
- tags: metaball, loading-indicator, custom-view, android-view, android
