I was looking at some transitions in the Plaid app & came across this FabTransform, is this still the right way to do such morph animation to this date? Or androidx.transition does provide any other convenient APIs?

Does anyone else hate recyclerviews and how android handles lists.
4 projects | /r/androiddev | 20 Nov 2021

I used to hate recyclerview and writing their adapters each time until i came across Airbnb Epoxy. Now I've forgotten how to write View Holders and sh*t. This library has made more comfortable with RV. I haven't started compose because i feel it's still not ready for complicated apps like content apps or e commerce etc.
