## What it is
An Android library providing a custom ViewPager title strip with a scroll-synced indicator that gives continuous visual feedback while swiping. It extends Google's SlidingTabBasic sample with many customizable indicator, divider, and text styling options.

## Use cases
- add swipeable tabs to an Android ViewPager
- show a moving tab indicator while the user scrolls pages
- customize tab strip colors, indicator width, and dividers
- replace PagerTabStrip with a more flexible tab layout
- build a Material-style tab header for a paged Android app

## When to choose
- you use the classic ViewPager and want a highly customizable tab strip
- you need continuous indicator feedback during page swipes
- you want a drop-in widget configurable via XML attributes

## When to avoid
- you are building with Jetpack Compose
- you use ViewPager2, which needs a different tab solution like TabLayout
- you need a library under active development

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