## What it is
An Android custom view library providing an animated multi-category search view with tabbed search inputs. It is written in Kotlin and distributed via JitPack.

## Use cases
- add an animated search bar with category tabs to an Android app
- implement a multi-category search input in Kotlin
- customize the styling of a search view via XML styles
- handle search text changes and selection events per tab
- recreate a Dribbble-style animated search UI in Android

## When to choose
- you need a ready-made animated, tabbed search view on Android
- you want a lightweight custom view you can style via XML
- your project is Kotlin/Java Android and uses JitPack

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with active updates or a declared license file
- you need search logic or backend integration, not just the UI widget
- your app targets Jetpack Compose rather than XML views
