Keyboard Simple is preserved here as a small, inspectable Android library artifact. The record deliberately stays close to what can be checked: public source exists, the repository is licensed under Apache-2.0, and release 1.0.5 provides an AAR.
The archive does not infer adoption, user counts, team context, or current compatibility from those facts. Its value here is as a concrete example of packaging Android UI behavior into a reusable library boundary.
What the artifact demonstrates
- a versioned Android library release;
- Java and Kotlin source in a public repository;
- Gradle/JitPack integration coordinates recorded in the original documentation;
- an explicit open-source license.
The integration document keeps the source-supported setup separate from this case-study record.
Integrating release 1.0.5
Source-supported Gradle and JitPack coordinates for the published Keyboard Simple artifact, with explicit verification limits.
Read on its own: Integrating release 1.0.5The archived documentation records JitPack as the package source:
dependencyResolutionManagement {
repositories {
maven { url = uri("https://jitpack.io") }
}
}It records this dependency coordinate for release 1.0.5:
dependencies {
implementation("com.github.NearApps:Keyboard-Simple:1.0.5")
}These instructions document the published artifact; they are not a compatibility guarantee. Verify the repository, artifact availability, Android Gradle Plugin compatibility, and API behavior before using the library in a current project.
