## What it is
NextGrowingTextView is an iOS UI component library providing an auto-growing text input view for UIKit and SwiftUI. It expands between configurable min/max line limits and includes placeholder support.

## Use cases
- auto-expanding chat message input field on iOS
- multi-line comment box that grows as the user types
- text input with placeholder and min/max line limits in SwiftUI
- growing UITextView with automatic scroll to bottom in UIKit

## When to choose
- building an iOS chat or messaging input bar
- you need a self-sizing text editor with line limits in UIKit or SwiftUI

## When to avoid
- targeting platforms other than iOS
- you need rich text editing beyond a growing text view
