## What it is
A collection of Android sample projects from Google demonstrating best practices for building Android user interfaces, written in Kotlin. The repository has been deprecated, with most samples migrated to the android/platform-samples repository.

## Use cases
- learn android ui best practices
- find sample code for android user interface features
- see examples of jetpack compose ui patterns
- reference kotlin ui samples when starting an android app
- study google's recommended android ui implementations

## When to choose
- you want historical reference examples of Android UI patterns
- you are maintaining an older project that links to these samples

## When to avoid
- you want up-to-date samples - use android/platform-samples instead
- you need production-ready code rather than demonstration samples

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, developer-tools
- domain: mobile-development, android-tools, tutorials, web-design
- platform: jvm
- tags: android-ui, sample-code, jetpack-compose, google, deprecated, migrated, android
