In the realm of Android development, animation is a key aspect that enhances user experience and engagement. The open-source library android-tnranimationhelper
, brought to life by Thunderrise, simplifies the integration of common animations in Android applications using the native Android animation library.
Here's a glimpse into the core offerings of android-tnranimationhelper
library:
- Rotation Animation: Animate the rotation of a view smoothly.
- Scale Animation: Effortlessly scale views to a desired size.
- Translation Animation: Translate views across the screen with ease.
- Alpha Animation: Adjust the transparency of views for a fading effect.
- Color Animation: Transition between colors to add a visual appeal.
Implementing animations is a breeze with android-tnranimationhelper
. Simply import the library into your Android project, and you are good to go:
// Adding dependency in build.gradle
dependencies {
implementation 'com.github.thunderrise:android-tnranimationhelper:-SNAPSHOT'
}
// Utilizing animation in code
import com.github.thunderrise.android.tnranimationhelper.TnrAnimationHelper;
// Create animation instance
TnrAnimationHelper animationHelper = new TnrAnimationHelper();
// Set animation properties
animationHelper.setRotation(rotation);
animationHelper.setScale(scale);
animationHelper.setTranslation(translation);
animationHelper.setAlpha(alpha);
animationHelper.setColor(color);
// Kickstart the animation
animationHelper.start();
Executing the above snippet initiates the specified animation on the targeted view.
The android-tnranimationhelper
library extends its utility with additional features:
- Animation Actions: Define custom actions for a more controlled animation experience.
- Animation Listener: Monitor animation lifecycle events such as start and end, for better control and response.
