## What it is
An Android library that simplifies drawing dividers between items in a RecyclerView via custom ItemDecoration implementations. It provides builder-based configuration for color, size, margins, drawables, paints, and per-position customization.

## Use cases
- add dividers between recyclerview list items
- customize recyclerview item separator color and size
- draw horizontal dividers in a vertical list
- draw vertical dividers in a horizontal list
- use a drawable or 9patch as a list divider
- change divider appearance per position in a recyclerview

## When to choose
- you need fine-grained control over RecyclerView dividers without writing ItemDecoration code yourself
- you want per-position divider customization via provider interfaces
- you need dividers with margins, custom paint effects, or 9patch drawables

## When to avoid
- you use Jetpack Compose instead of RecyclerView
- you only need a simple default divider available via built-in APIs or newer libraries
- you need a actively maintained library with recent commits
