## What it is
ViewPagerIndicator is an Android library providing paging indicator widgets (titles, circles, tabs, etc.) compatible with the ViewPager from the Android Support Library and ActionBarSherlock. It offers multiple theming options via theme XML, layout XML, or object methods.

## Use cases
- add page indicator dots to a ViewPager
- show titles for each page in a swipeable pager
- bind tab indicators to an Android ViewPager
- customize the look of paging indicators in an Android app
- replace default ViewPager page change listener with an indicator widget

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy Android app already using the Android Support Library ViewPager or ActionBarSherlock
- you need classic paging indicator widgets on old Android support libraries

## When to avoid
- starting a new Android project with modern Jetpack components like ViewPager2 and TabLayout
- you need an actively maintained or supported library
- you need a license-compliant dependency (no license is provided)

- maturity: abandoned
- function: ui-components, mobile-framework
