ViewPropertyObjectAnimator VS TabSync

I've been using https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator and it's amazing

you just use https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator for everything, and if you need shared element transtiions you cry (then again, it's not like Compost can do that at all, so)

Animations with views were much easier, you just had to use this lib https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator and animator sets made it trivial. If you needed fancy crossfades then TransitionManager.beginDelayedTransition(container) and that's it.

Honestly, they're pretty even in that regard. Whether you use XML or Compose in "simple apps" is up to you. Some things are easier in Compose, and some things are just stupid tricky. Animations in Compose are the worst imo, with ViewPropertyObjectAnimator they used to be trivial for XML layouts.

This is probably just my experience, but with Compose I have to muck around with LaunchedEffects and manual interpolation, while with XML views I could just use https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator and AnimatorSet().playTogether().

That, and animations with https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator were much easier than linear interpolating in a LaunchedEffect, and shadow support is basically non-existent (Modifier.shadow() doesn't work as you expect, even android:elevation was better).

I like this library https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator

I don't know how to write animations without ViewPropertyObjectAnimator https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator

Really? I just used https://github.com/blipinsk/ViewPropertyObjectAnimator + AnimatorSet for everything and it always just worked

TabSync Compose now supports synchronization between any LazyListState-based (e.g. LazyColumn) composable with an index-based composable (ScrollableTabRow)

I made my first android library a while ago and called it TabSync, it provides you with a synchronizer object between recyclerview and tabview.

I've recently written an Android library called TabSync, and I've written an article over its usage and usecases.
