plaid VS groupie

Check the "Plaid" app, it was quite popular and is based on MVVM, use cases, Material Design: https://github.com/nickbutcher/plaid

Apps for inspiration/examples: Plaid, Tivi

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?

I've been hearing for 2 years that the primary benefit of Compose is that you "no longer need to write a RecyclerView.Adapter", not realizing that you can use something like Groupie and effectively turn RecyclerView into adapter.setItems(listOf(Item1(), Item2())) just like in Compose.

https://github.com/lisawray/groupie Maybe it can help for your purposes

Been using RecyclerView and haven't written an adapter in a very long time because you can abstract it away

Technically you can also use a library that hides this from you, for example I tend to use https://github.com/lisawray/groupie with BindableItem

There are also libs that help you handle this, there's gorupie here https://github.com/lisawray/groupie and also Expandable RV here https://github.com/thoughtbot/expandable-recycler-view

RecyclerView utilities: Epoxy, Groupie, AdapterDelegates

I think Groupie is nice, although Google seems to think of each Adapter being able to describe itself "as an item view type". So you could build "multiple item view types" using a concatAdapter of N ListAdapters. Tricky.

We've been using https://github.com/lisawray/groupie/ which offers a common GroupAdapter for all Items, so that each RecyclerView Item type can be encapsulated in its own class, Item.

Don't write adapters or view holders for RecyclerView, use something like Groupie.
