An Android UI library that lets layouts expand and collapse smoothly on user interaction, inspired by the Blinkist app and Spotify's search bar. It provides a custom ScalingLayout view with expand/collapse/progress APIs and a CoordinatorLayout behavior.

Use cases

• expand a search bar into a full-screen input like Spotify
• animate a layout to scale when the user taps it
• create expanding FAB interactions on Android
• add rounded-corner expanding cards to an Android app
• coordinate layout expansion with scrolling using CoordinatorLayout

When to choose

• you need a polished expand/collapse animation for an Android layout
• you want Spotify-style search bar behavior with minimal code
• you need fine-grained control over expansion progress via a listener

When to avoid

• you are not building an Android app
• you need a library with an explicit license file or active maintenance guarantees
• you need Jetpack Compose-based animations rather than XML views
