Swipeable RecyclerView Tutorial

[ivandamyanov]

I think one of the most attractive things about this library is the swipeable feature with icons below the RecyclerView item allowing to take action, as we've seen them on Google apps. I have never seen a tutorial online on this library and it is really hard to implement its features.

Does anyone know of a tutorial on the Swipeable features? I tried following the guide that the author wrote but it lead me nowhere. I really need this feature and the library seems to be doing great in the demo video, but obviously no one implements it and helps other do it too. I'd really like it if someone could make an example how to implement that with at least it's basic working functionality. Thank you

Hi. Have you took a look at my examples code? The "Swipeable (basic)" example shows how to implement Google's Inbox app like behavior. Thanks.
