Several short snippets for File I/O in generic Java.

Useful for checking if a watch face is running on a watch that is being used with an iPhone.

Accessing the camera or location in a WebView is not possible without granting the WebView permission. Make sure your app has permissions already through the conventional method before calling this snippet:

Fragment with a WebView and fall-back UI in case there’s no active data connection.

This LayoutManager functions as a wrap_content of sorts for the height of a RecyclerView.

This is a custom view to draw dotted, vertical lines.

This custom view shows a progress bar in the foreground of a TextView. Check the Pixplicity Authenticator app for an example.

This custom view shows a clock-like circular countdown, and can be used as a timer or as a ProgressBar. To use as a timer, create your own handler (or similar) to update the progress automatically.

Adds very basic support for using bulleted lists in TextViews.

There’s no textStyle to add underline to a TextView or Button. Use the following to add it programmatically instead:

Start by getting a reference to the WindowManager. When in an Activity, you can use getWindowManager(), otherwise, use:

To turn a RecycerView upside-down, and add elements from the bottom like a chat window, use this:

This is a combination of a CursorAdapter fit for RecyclerViews, and several helpers to support drag-and-drop and swipe-to-dismiss.

This is the bare minimum boilerplate for quickly creating a RecyclerView.

Rule: never ever implement a splash screen using a separate activity. Splash screens should be used to show something while the app loads, and is not a way to delay app launch just to show a logo.
