## What it is
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

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: animation, ui-components
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, frontend
- platform: jvm
