Hi everyone! I wanted to let you know that the RecyclerView integration has landed (bug 1171288 [1])!
RecyclerView is a modern replacement for ListView and GridView that is more flexible. Some highlights are: * It uses (customizable) layout managers for positioning items and has three built-in layout managers: LinearLayoutManager (vertical/horizontal lists), GridLayoutManager and StaggeredGridLayoutManager. * It supports animations for adding and removing items The library came with a cost of 190kB. Hopefully we can get some of that back by gradually removing our outdated copy of the TwoWayView library (bug 1158303 [2]) and unifying all our list/grid code. If you want to learn more about RecyclerView, I compiled a list of interesting blog postings: * http://www.grokkingandroid.com/first-glance-androids-recyclerview/ * https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/recyclerview-part-1-fundamentals-for-listview-experts/ * https://www.bignerdranch.com/blog/recyclerview-part-2-choice-modes/ * http://www.birbit.com/recyclerview-animations-part-1-how-animations-work/ * http://www.birbit.com/recyclerview-animations-part-2-behind-the-scenes/ Best, Sebastian [1]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1171288 [2]: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1158303
