## What it is
An Android library providing an efficient TabLayout implemented with RecyclerView, designed to handle many tabs and infinite loop scrolling. It integrates easily with ViewPager similarly to the Android Design Support Library's TabLayout.

## Use cases
- display many tabs efficiently in an android app
- implement infinite loop scrolling tab bar
- replace TabLayout with a RecyclerView-based version
- sync tab indicator with ViewPager
- support RTL layouts for tabs
- create custom tab adapters with RecyclerView

## When to choose
- your app needs a tab bar with a large number of tabs
- you want infinite/looping tab scrolling
- you need RTL layout support in tabs
- you want easy ViewPager integration like TabLayout

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library - last release was 2019
- your project uses ViewPager2 instead of ViewPager
- you only need a few simple tabs (use standard TabLayout)
- you use Kotlin-first or Jetpack Compose UI

## Facets

- maturity: maintenance
- function: ui-components, mobile-framework
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, frontend
