Scaloid is a Scala library aimed at simplifying the Android development experience by wrapping and reducing Android boilerplate when using Scala. It provides more concise syntax, helper abstractions, and shortcuts to make UI building, event handling, layout building, and Android API usage more idiomatic in Scala. The idea is to let developers write Android apps in Scala with less repetitive code, more readability, maintainability, while still interoperating with native Android APIs.
Features
- Simplified UI/widget creation: wrappers / helper methods that make constructing Android views, layouts etc more fluent in Scala.
- Reduced boilerplate in things like event listeners, view binding, context handling etc via Scala abstractions.
- Scala syntax leveraged: implicits, functional style to help glue together Android APIs more succinctly.
- Support for both Maven and sbt / Gradle builds so you can integrate into standard Android build workflows.
- Scope of helpers includes common Android patterns: toasts, dialogs, layout inflation, activity context etc.
- Designed for maintainability: clearer code, more expressive, easier to understand Android lifecycle / view-hierarchies when using Scala.
