Animations : Smooth Criminals
summary
Covers concrete tools and gotchas: shows Lottie use and Lottie performance caveats, introduces Kairi and Shapeshifter for AnimatedVectorDrawable workflows, and walks through XML, ViewPropertyAnimator, ObjectAnimator and PropertyValuesHolder implementations with explicit tradeoffs and why one resizes or holds scale unexpectedly. Includes runnable code, a demo on a Nexus 5X, notes about CPU/battery and low‑end device behavior, and examples where animations behave differently despite identical intents.
