StoryView

StoryView aar is to be used by developers who need to add story like views to their applications. Designed using kotlin lifecycle scope and flow I used kotlin coroutine as oppose to threads because it is easier to track and cancel jobs as oppose to cancelling threads.

This version does not supports videos yet, as it is in progress and would be released in the nearest future.
