## What it is
StatusBarUtil is a Java utility library for Android that simplifies setting the status bar style (color, translucency, transparency) on apps running API 19 and above. It provides static helper methods for common scenarios including DrawerLayout layouts, ImageView headers, Fragments, and swipe-back pages.

## Use cases
- set android status bar color
- make status bar translucent on android
- immersive status bar android app
- status bar color for drawerlayout
- change status bar style in fragment
- status bar color for swipe back activity

## When to choose
- you need quick status bar color/transparency control on Android 4.4+ without writing system UI flag code yourself
- your app uses DrawerLayout, ImageView headers, or ViewPager fragments and needs consistent status bar styling
- you want a simple static-method API callable right after setContentView

## When to avoid
- you target only Android 5.0+ and prefer native themes or the official WindowInsetsController APIs
- you use Jetpack Compose, where this View-based utility does not apply
- you need an actively maintained dependency - the last release was 2022 and JCenter is deprecated
