A library to simply use Backdrop in your project

IBackdrop

A library to simply setup a backdrop in your project since for now there is no a easy way to implement that in our project.

Words from official material link: "A backdrop appears behind all other surfaces in an app, displaying contextual and actionable content", so there is an example of what you get using this library:

Requirements

• Android API level 16 or greater
• Your favorite IDE

Setting up

Current version:

Gradle:

Step 1. Add the JitPack repository to your build file.
Add it in your root build.gradle at the end of repositories:

allprojects {
	repositories {
		...
		maven { url 'https://jitpack.io' }
		...
	}
}

Step 2. Add the dependency

dependencies {
        ...
	    implementation 'com.github.pedromassango:IBackdrop:CURRENT-VERSION'
	    ...
	}

Maven:

Step 1. register jitpack.io

<repositories>
	<repository>
	    <id>jitpack.io</id>
	    <url>https://jitpack.io</url>
	</repository>
</repositories>

Step 2. Add the dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.pedromassango</groupId>
    <artifactId>IBackdrop</artifactId>
    <version>CURRENT-VERSION</version>
</dependency>
