not really an issue more like a concern #59

hey this is not really an issue more like a concern.. what are the chances that you stop updating this library in the future i dont want to use it and then it breaks later down the road

luizgrp commented 7 years ago

I guess the same chances as for any open source library that is not maintained by a company. If you are looking for a similar library backed by a company you could try epoxy or graywater 👍

@luizgrp Thanks for sharing the above 2 libs. I didn't know about them till browse through their sites. Still, I prefer your lib than theirs, due to the lightweight and very thin layer.

@Scorlin I can share my experience of using this lib in my production app, for several months.

  1. This lib acts as a very thin extra layer, on the top of existing RecyclerView adapter. No new architecture or new concept were introduced. Hence, it is very easy to use.

  2. The code logic is very straightforward, and easy to understand. Hence, I do have a high confident level, on the bugfree level of this lib.

  3. It comes with a comprehensive set of unit tests. Hence, even when @luizgrp no longer maintain it, you still can easily modify the code, with less worry of breaking existing behavior.
