## What it is
A deprecated Android library that made it easy to add headers to RecyclerViews. The author recommends using a multi-view-type RecyclerView.Adapter instead.

## Use cases
- add a header to an Android RecyclerView
- display a header above a scrolling list in Android
- create list headers with RecyclerView
- attach a header view to a RecyclerView adapter

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Android project that already depends on it

## When to avoid
- starting any new Android project
- you want a maintained library
- you can write a multi-view-type RecyclerView.Adapter yourself

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools
- platform: jvm
- tags: recyclerview, android-ui, deprecated, header-view, android, mobile
